What is the difference between the Tecun PL-600SLV and the PL-660 beside color. Is there any electrical background noise when using the AC?

Regarding the first question, I spent a stupid amount of time researching that very thing when I was trying to decide between the two. Different ratings - different prices - one is prime, the other isn't. Googled SLV but got nothing helpful. Eventually this was followed by the slap to the head moment. IMO SLV stands for SILVER so you're correct, it's just a color difference.

The description given for this product can be confusing when it refers to "line noise." These inexpensive strips usually use devices called Metal Oxide Varistors to prevent voltage spikes above a predetermined threshold while they last. If you need a cleaner filter, a "power conditioner/line conditioner" might be what you are looking for. They contain additional circuitry to filter out ripple and unwanted frequencies for more demanding applications such as for pro audio equipment as an example. The TLP602 is not that. When I see "filtered power strip" I think power conditioner. Hope this helps.

I saw the LN32A650 and LN32A550 side by side. The white of the 650 was whiter and the black, blacker than the 550. I bought the 650 and am very happy with quality of the picture.

First, you might notice these are discounted prices. The EC650LCD is normally $99.95 vs. $89.95 for the CP600LCD. However, one difference is that the EC650 only has 526 Joules surge suppression vs. 1,030 joules for the CP600 (I always get a good surge protector of 3,500 joules-plus to plug my battery backup into - 526 joules is not an abnormal range for UPS). The CP600 also has better plug distribution for transformer plugs. The EC series is the"Ecological" class while the CP Series is the "Intelligent LCD" class. On lower end UPS there may not be much difference. I have multiple UPS for the company I work for and rarely have to monitor them. We have power outages and they all do what they are supposed to do. You might look at www.cyberpowersystems.com for more detailed info.

I can't say for certain as I haven't compared them. It's possible that is a newer model or slightly higher wattage. In my experience they are likely similar. A quick search on 1900 revealed little results surprisingly. Sorry if not much help

Please look at the specification provided by GoPower: http://gpelectric.com/files/gpelectric/Docs/Specs/Go_Power_SPC_GP-SW150-300-600.pdf It says this model has a thermostatically controlled fan. The unit is very quiet -- we have never heard a sound from it. For details of our installation see http://www.flickr.com/photos/brian_vansnell/8530157914/

The one I purchased did have digital sounding hum/buzz in the background. I returned it and saved up for an ac15c1c.

I have not experienced that noise. I use electric heat. Could there be a difference?

The 660 slv is just the silver version rather than the black; identical otherwise. Mine came with a simple external antenna about 10-15 ft long that plugs into the antenna jack on the radio and has a clip on the other end to attach to whatever is handy to string it out. Use it judicially though; it not only increases reception of signals but background noises and interference from nearby electronics (TVs, etc).

damn, i'd like to know this too. specifically, which one runs quieter and cooler? and furthermore, which one is more reliable?

lumpini, in the technical information is: 120v / 60hz in both models. for me it's a great product.

Music from other countries? Why would I buy a splendid little short wave radio like my Tecsun PL-660 just to listen to music??? To Sue A.: I don't know.Buy a Tecsun PL-660 & find out for yourself.What ever is being broadcast at the time is what you will hear.I,ve owned several SW.radios over the years & this one is great,especially for its size.R.B.

I think the labels are a marketing gimmick. Electric current is the same and protects everything plugged in. I LOVE this unit!! I had purchased many others more expensive ones and returned them. This was the best of them all, does not make any noise and has a cool blue light when powered on. I use it for my 50" plasma, Yamaha AV-730, Verizon DVR, DVD Player, VHS, and Wii. highly recommend it!

When I ordered from amazon I got a 110/60. Don't know if they have the other.

If you use the fan, it has a high pitch/whiney noise when using the a/c adapter. on battery the fan is pretty mellow, so much its fairly useless. So buy the a/c adapter if you want the air circulated around.

Hi Terry. Good point. Worth asking the seller. I don't know if all ac from them have the same issue. Plus, people may have different levels of tolerance for noise. I couldn't sleep. Maybe it is just me.

I have one of each. My reason for buying the EI600LAC was that I read a specification somewhere stating it was rated for 20 amps and I have it on a 20 amp line. Both seemed to program and work the same. I really like them.
