After hearing and seeing the horror stories online, I would not risk it!

There's no risk with GE SCS1200. It's what should be used exclusively, unless you can find a comparable. I haven't found one.

I'm with Grizz. I got mine for around $7-8 per tube of SCS1200 but I only bought a few. People stress over what to get and try to cut corners with GEll when everyone should be using SCS1200.
