We recommend this unit to those who need a more lasting Smart Card Reader. We include this as a bundle with our MyKad Reading Software. We were very impressed with the speed and simplicity of this unit. The unit is larger than the others, but feels robust.

This make it easy to troubleshoot problem. One feature we liked about the driver installation is that the driver software check that all the necessary services are on and working in your computer system to start reading Smart Cards or MyKad Data. The driver installation is straight forward. The company has rated this Smart Card Reader for 200,000 times inserts. This unit gave a consistent read time of 9.15sec to read the MyKad data and photo. This is the fastest our of the three units tested. Includes a driver CD for other opeating systems including Mac and Linux. This unit gave an average time of 10.68sec to read the MyKad data and photo. Our next unit is one from Stanley Global Technologies. The unit works with our Easy MyKad Reader software under Windows 2000/XP/Vista/7. But of the three units, it is also the slowest with an average read time of 12.41sec to read Mykad data and photo. This is the unit that we used to develop the MyKad Reader software initially. This unit cost us about RM110 including courier charges. The first unit we bought was the ROCKEY model. This unit always gave a consistent time of about 9.15sec each time the read MyKad button was pressed. The fastest was the unit was the Castle EZ100PU.


We measured the average read time for MyKad. All units also have been tested with the Microsoft Windows 7 operating system. The units pictured are all USB 2.0 and PC/SC compliant and work well with our Easy MyKad Reader Software.
