    Why is Eksom voltage so high?

    My other inverter is a RCT UPS. I have set that one to drop the voltage to 230v whenever Eskom's power goes above 250v. Problem is that it spins the fan when it drops the power and since this ups is in my room, I have this spinning fan all night. Should I inform our municipality about this high...

    Why is Eksom voltage so high?

    I have 3 inverters in my home. All of them measure very high voltages from 240v to 258v every day. Is such high voltage not bad for your appliances. My 12v transformers keep blowing. Could this be the cause?

    The official supersonic R999 Uncapped feedback!

    Hi all. any news on download speeds? I am so worried about speeds. I have the Telkom 1TB deal, but I cannot get speeds higher than 15mb/s. I had supersonic and the speed was great (average 100mb/s) Do you people think the speed will be the same with the uncapped deal?

    MTN Black Friday Questions

    I am interested in this 1TB plan from MTN, but I am confused. What is this video streaming (Showmax and DSTV only) mean. Will I be able to stream from Netflix and Amazon Prime, or will they drop the speed so that you cannot stream in 4K? What speed can I expect, and does the FUP of 200gb apply...

    Supersonic Black Friday deals unveiled

    I don't understand. I have a supersonic Fixed LTE 100gb +100gb account, and my speed here in PE is around 100mb/s. Yesterday I phoned Supersonic to get more info on the uncapped deal at R999. The agent told me it is not a 1TB data deal like the one that MTN have. If I am interested in this...

    Telkom SIM activation

    A day or 2..... I don't think so. I went to The Telkom store at The Bridge in Port Elizabeth last week Saturday to get a sim card that was part of a fibre deal. The consultant told me it would take 2 days to activate, but it's Friday now and it's still not activated. Best part is that if you...

    Suddenly my speed is extremely slow.

    Yes, same with me. Got my sim 28th of June, inserted it into my Huawei LTE A modem, but have never got any speed higher than 2MB on speedtest.net (Average donwload speed between 50 -200KB/s) Tested it at my office and at home. Don't know how those people get such high speeds in Port Elizabeth.
