Escort Cordless vs other Escort radar detectors

I recently purchased a Escort Solo radar detector. I got a great deal so I couldn't pass it up. After some reading it seems the cordless detectors are very lacking with range. I know the Escort Solo has an optional cord. With this optional cord does the solo then become as good as the other Escort's (7500 or 8500) or will it always be behind the others when it comes to detection range?



Thanks.

The problem I see with cordless ones is that they lose range very quickly when the batteries start to run down.
 
I've also got the solo s2 cordless, its pretty good. The battery life is extended by the fact that the lights are shutdown until a threat is detected.

Believe it or not the s2 comes very close to the 8500.
