<<<< Senior Member Jan 19, 2009 #2 SM is fine, just change it once in a while (like every 3-6 months).
CJ3Flyr Super Moderator Jan 19, 2009 #3 SM is fine, it's one standard newer. Somewhere your literature will say SL or higher. :cheers:
Casper New member Jan 20, 2009 #4 as others have stated...SM is the newer standard. it might not be better, but its newer.
