My Wife has some "old" GBP bank notes. Now a friend from the UK came over and he told her that you have to exchange these "old" GBP bank notes because they are NOT valid any more (from the 1st Oct) Does anyone know if my wife we can exchange these NOTES here in Thailand for new notes OR Thai Baht or must we send these "OLD" bank notes back with the friend to the UK and he exchanges them?

Don't ask me, cost saving is my guess. but as you can see that it's easy to talk to a live person, just go to their help center and chat and type in "Live Person" or something like that, and when someone is available they talk to you else you will be put in a queue

I just tried and almost immediately talking to a lIve person

Thx. RTFM I believe it's called ???? It could be the max that the Inverter is able to handle (8kW) but that is just guessing, the 8 also shows up for house and grid.

Maybe, but you need to type in "Talk to Live Person" in the Lazada Chatline and you will be redirected. They only are there certain times 8am-7pm I believe.

@KhunLA May I ask why your Battery says 8kW only, is that "usable" (DOD) of your 2x ESS? Your Panels say 12. Just wondering.

This picture (Buriram province) was from before Noru hit, now my BIL tells me it's much worse.

????????

Indeed, when we bought our Car we didn't know it had it, and we pleasantly surprised that one "cold" morning 18c and the aircon was at 26c and after a while HOT air came out of the Vents.

what do you mean by service? (Visa run? , there was once by a guy who owned a local Buriram forum, but he is gone and also that service, maybe there is another but no idea about that, ask a travel agent) no recent experience sorry, but car park is approx 100-150 meters from the border (I believe not guarded)

The only member (I know of) who lives in that area is @khwaibah

May I ask what do you mean by that? I am keeping the Money required in a Fixed Deposit account (oke not a lot of interest) and this has always been accepted.

Get some fake ones for now For example: https://www.lazada.co.th/products/dummy-camera-i2327285645-s7867458924.html? And then tell the wife to get the handy man to put some up. This could deter the "owners" of the Bolt Cutters to not come back and you have time to install the real deal!

Only recipient and amount is printed on the Cheque Also make that it says on the Cheque AC Payee ONLY else someone else could cash it if the owner loses it This is the Cheque we used to pay the seller Here the thread I opened asking about it

And make sure that the recipients name is absolutely 100% correct! When we bought the property next door, we received a copy of the ID card of the Buyer and with that we went to the bank and had the bank clerk write down the name and double check it with my wife before they printed out the Cashiers Cheque!

We do that regularly on all our individual ones.

Thx for this. We were thinking of switching our PEA Supply to a 30/100 from 15/45 to support a "hide-away/man cave" in the back of the property but those plans are on hold because of the weather. Maybe after reading your comment, I guess this plan will be cancelled if it means that we will get a Digital Meter. Running it on Solar (off-grid) will be out of the question because of the Massive cost involved, Aircons, Pumps etc etc running. (Need to spend more on the Solar install then the cost of building the "man cave". )

Another question, this time about NO-Export Suppose you have NO-Export turned on, and your house is only using let's say 300W, but the Panels are producing (again let's say) 1500W. Where does those approx 1200W (difference between usage and producing) go instead of going into the grid?

At the moment we are using a Grid-Tied inverter with 3 panels but we are preparing to get "real" Solar (Hybrid Inverter with 10 Panels). We normally use on average around 300 Units per month (measured over a period of just over 2 years), but this month and last month (since we started with the GTI) our bill is already reaching very low heights (for our standards), last month it was 191 Units and this month the prediction is 162 Units. (Ps: This lowering of our bill is NOT 100% because of the GTI another contributing factor is the weather, lots of rains and thus no watering of the garden) So a question for the guys with "unofficial" Solar installs that feed back into the grid How low did your PEA meter go after you installed Solar and what was your normal (before Solar) usage?

Can anyone recommend a device that monitors how much Energy a appliance uses? I was looking at this but no idea if it's any good? Will this one even work in Thailand?
