Hi there, is anyone tried to use the Kingston 8GB ram(KTA-MB1600/8G) for MacBook Pro 13" 2012?

I just brought a MacBook Pro 13" 2012 model, and decided to upgrade to 16GB RAM, so I'm looking for what ram to buy.

I search this forum and other website, many of peoples suggest to go for Crucial or OWC with 1.35V model, however both brand do not available on my country(Hong Kong).

The only thing I can found is Kingston KTA-MB1600, however it doesn't state that the voltage of this model. I emailed to Kingston sales support and asked for the voltage, and the support told me this ram model is 1.5V.

So I want to see if anyone tried this ram and see if this is good for the new MBP or not, any comment will be appreciate, thanks.
