Hello Shivani,
I have reports from the German company Bajog, who have calculated and
tested, that raising the number of capacitors
(filters) can cause unwanted resonances, by which other electrical equipment
can get damaged.
By raising the capacity of 200 uF and a net impedance of 0,5-1,2 Ohm (praxis
value), the critical resonance frequency can be 180 Hz, which is the 3rd
harmonic.
I have bought 2 Stetzer filters in the european design, and I am not
satisfied with them.
The contact pins, which are too thin for our european wall socket, do have
already black burn marks on them.
When one places these filters in a wall socket, they *hang*.
The housing is not safe; the connection of the two halves is too weak.
The connectors inside which connect through to the outside, are not safe.
Sure, the filters do filter a lot, according to the Stetzerizer meter, but I
cannot advice them to the public, because I find them not safe enough.
The american version may be all right, but the the european version (made in
China) is certainly not.
If a fire starts by them, all hell brakes loose.
So I am not misinformed.
I am for safety first.
I can also say a lot regarding your appraised Multidetektor II Profi, with
which people may *measure* things that do not exist and vice versa, but will
refrain so in order to avoid certain lawyers.

Subject: [eSens] Dave Stetzer's comments re. filters' performance
Dave Stetzer says "The filters do not cause harmonics in Europe any
more
than they would
here. The person is just misinformed. We are using them in Europe,
Russia, Kazakhstan, Korea, Singapore, UK, and Australia, all of which
are the 220 volt models, and all having the same positive results."
