still recommended to protect the power as the same time to prevent back surge...

if just protect a simple pc setup as what u said, SF9812DSL will sufficient for u... it used to protect 1 set of PC, 1 unit of modem and 1 unit of wireless router if u have any within a small area/room...

Does the SF9812DSL affect my broadband speed? Am quite a heavy user...

was thinking maybe a simple SP9201DAF/DSL (not sure wats the diff) would do. Already have an old Adaport surge protector for the power.

Gan, wat do u mean by this?
MDSC0039, Protect:P -> RRP:RM53, 10%off, Now:RM48 (Can Add Additional Earth Cable)
The additional earth cable can protect the equipment better? Is it necessary to add the Earth?

I alr got the SP9201DAF. It at the phone line....so i should just get the MDSC0039...shld be enuf rite?

Yes, get a MDSC0039 to combine together with SP9201DAF... this combination able to protect 1set PC equipment, modem and analog telephone...

about the grounding of MDSC0039, u can connect the green wire of SP9201DAF to MDSC0039's earth connector, so SP9201DAF able to do surge isolate...

Can i COD a MDSC0039? How can i get it from u?

my SP9201DAF onli lasted a month...got struck by lightning again, is it too sensitive or wat?

i had already got a recycled unit for RM25 just last month. Now its out again....realli thinking if its too sensitive just to make us pay more.

Anyone had this experience?

did u ground the green cable to earth pin? otherwise the isolated surge no where to go, retain in SP9201DAF and self-destruct to ensure equipment in safe condition...

FYI, SP9201DAF replacement cost should only RM15... may i know where u do the replacement?

if u follow my recommendation to use SF9812DSL to protect ur PC setup, the replacement cost just Rm10 to replace a small cube module which inside the SF9812DSL...

if u only used SP9201DAF to protect tel line but power line not protected, pls take the risk that the surge may come from power line anytime and destruct ur PC setup although SP9201DAF still working...

so far i only receive 2 complain from my customer...
a customer used IT pack, equipments burnt... problem due to wrong installation and caused back surge after investigate by cal-lab staffs...
a customer not following my recommendation to protect his modem and PC, bcos insist want to cut cost...

hence, most the customers who followed my recommendation not complain to me, at least i ensure their equipments in safe condition... maybe have small numbers of unhappy customer but i dont know who they r...

The SP9201DAF protected my equipment, notin damaged...but this is my third one in like 4 months since i last got it...

The total cost would be 43 + 25 + 25 = RM93....thinkin maybe i would be better off getting a belkin....at least that is lifetime warranty....

I got my replacement at Centrepoint DIY. The grounding was also done properly...the SP9201DAF just seems abit too fragile in my opinion....

ok...will give it another try...but a recycled unit costs RM25 or RM15?

the website says ----> Lifetime Exchange-replacement @ RM25 (found on http://www.cal-lab.com)

i just need a place to exchange which is reasonable...i work on weekdays...so it might be hard to get to the office on weekdays.
