Mark your gadgets

[Joeker]

Remember during schooling days where we used to mark our belonging with our initials to avoid mix up.

I think if those of u using gadgets were to make markings on your gadgets, then it'll make it harder for them to steal and sell to unsuspecting buyers.

It's same concept as sand blasting your car reg. no on the windows / mirrors.

Etch your initials or car registration no. onto the meters casing or SAFC housing.

Now if the bastards steals it, he'll have to grind away the etchings.

Make as deep an etching possible so that the fucktard will have to grind a big part of the plastic or steel away.

Make your marking on a spot where it is clearly visible to deter the thief from stealing.

DO IT!! DO IT NOW!!!

hehe.. yeah.. i sprayed my SAFC to black with some artistic paint distortion on the plastic case...
in future my gauges got the sticker marked "ROSAK" kekekeke... but when i wanna sell it off how ah? den i rugi teruk lah...

Actually SAFC and RSM has a rather hard to peel sticker sticked onto the gadget with a serial number. A copy of the sticker is also sticked onto the manual booklet as well. Remember hard the number or jot it down for references later on.

I guess if these buggers were to sell it out, potential buyers should take notice of the sticker and if it is ever peeled, then it's time to get suspicious and bring out the parangs :D

WHen selling marked meters, at least the buyers know he is buying genuine stuff from the seller, not stolen.

Seller also can proof the meters are not stolen.

And In Malaysia, im sure someone will create something to break that password.

good advice. but these gadgets are not 20cents worth of erasers or RM5 worth of pencil case. if i have any gadgets, i won't have the heart to do any damage to them aesthetically.

there is a password lock function in the VAFC2 to prevent changes to the settings. not sure if it will be overriden by the initialize function.
