  1. Can you export to the grid from your inverter? Did you have a PEA inspection? I think I read that the ATS serves to completely isolate my installation from the grid when the grid fails.
  2. Are you using any ESP32 relay controllers? Those boards are the source of all my problems with switching from grid to battery and back. They seem very sensitive to power fluctuations. They are also the reason I need a UPS for my network gear. Many days our house will get several really short grid failures and often my network and/or relay controllers will re-boot. When multiple links in a communication link are re-started sometimes the process doesn't succeed due to timing issues. If my network gear survives the multiple power glitches without re-booting, then the comm. link gets re-established 100% of the time. The UPS for the network gear is small and cheap and has performed perfectly so far. I think the main issues is the ESP32 software is poorly done and has little resilience for such situations.
  3. like the quadriplegic who fell overboard.... he washed up on the beach.
  4. LOL.... he posts unbelievable inanities to keep his post count up.... .....if everyone in the world was really on the ball it would be harder for me to make a living.....
  5. LOL LOL OK 40 psychologists signed a letter claiming..... My Psych 101 professor had the bright idea of giving LSD to 30 young repeat offenders in jail under a government research grant. (Google "duncan blewett" LSD inmate) Who'd like to take a shot at guessing how that turned out? I'm sure a group of 40 such individuals would definitely come up with many wacky ideas. Of course The Telegraph would consider such ideas newsworthy.
  6. Unfortunately, those most susceptible have been culled over that last 5 years. The remaining unvaxed are only doing better than those who already succumbed.
  7. I wish the Thai government could be convinced that poker is really a game of skill and they would no longer banish it as a form of gambling. I know at least one AN poster who isn't fishy..... LOL
  8. Not sure what answer you want. Currently I only have summary by casino over the entirety of my career. I've also been retired for 5+ years. Beaten by me? Beaten only by me? Beaten by most of the other professional gamblers as well? Of course the other pros rarely shared their profit/loss info with me. Being of an analytical mind I kept very detailed records of game I played, what casino, what date and the results. I use spreadsheets to analyze by game, by casino.... so I can give detailed answers. My top 5 best results were: Gold Coast, Sam's Town, South Point, Palms and Treasure Island. My wife's (also a pro) were: Mandalay Bay, Palms, Orleans, Green Valley Ranch and Sam's Town My worst: John Ascuaga's Nugget in Sparks, NV and the wife's worst : MGM If you know Vegas casinos you'll notice that results were much better at 'locals' casinos.
  9. LOL no casino wins 100%. Why should they do that? In the long run, most gamblers will lose enough for the casino to show a tidy profit.
  10. That is the consensus of the uneducated public. However, almost every casino game can legally be beaten under specific circumstances. The circumstances usually include staff errors, overly generous promotions intended to increase volume, progressive jackpots and statutory obligations to give away funds. The last two are complicated to explain, so I won't. I'll just say that Nevada gaming regulations often protect the gambler from overly stingy casinos. Having said that, the Nevada casinos where I made my living for 25 years are very competitive so they generally offer better odds than casinos with little competition. I think any casino in Thailand will only offer the poorest odds that they can get away with. Also, the player will probably not be as protected as in Nevada.
  11. I would check out the casino's for potential profitable opportunities..... because I have enough math education and experience.
  12. https://www.google.com/search?q=hoar+frost+trees&newwindow=1&sca_esv=d52286dabd1f67ed&ei=fKHsZ-wq-aCx4w_zisLIDQ&ved=0ahUKEwjs2LmYp7iMAxV5UGwGHXOFENkQ4dUDCBA&oq=hoar+frost+trees&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LXNlcnAiEGhvYXIgZnJvc3QgdHJlZXMyChAAGLADGNYEGEcyChAAGLADGNYEGEcyChAAGLADGNYEGEcyChAAGLADGNYEGEcyChAAGLADGNYEGEcyChAAGLADGNYEGEcyChAAGLADGNYEGEcyChAAGLADGNYEGEdI3C5QnA9YoSBwAngBkAEAmAFjoAGgAaoBATK4AQzIAQD4AQGYAgSgArYBwgIFEAAY7wXCAggQABiABBiiBJgDAOIDBRIBMSBAiAYBkAYIkgcDMy4xoAfhBrIHAzEuMbgHqAE&sclient=gws-wiz-serp
  13. A standard solar with battery installation still does not solve all the issues with power. I still need small UPS boxes for my network gear and desktop. They are able to switch to battery much faster than my solar setup. When the grid fails the ATS (automatic transfer switch) on my solar installation does its job albeit a little too slowly. Some of my 'smart' devices seem to have a problem with the brief period of unstable power. I use 4 ESP32 relay controllers to operate our property entry gate and 3 garage doors. One of the devices will sometimes go completely off the reservation and the garage door will open/close repeatedly until the circuit breaker is flipped to completely reset the device/motor controller. Just yesterday a major component of PEA's equipment in our mubaan failed and the grid power oscillated off/on with a short cycle. My 'smart' devices and solar installation did not deal with that very well. Welcome to Thailand.... 555
  14. easiest way to share large full resolution images is via google drive. Forums and email generally restrict image sizes.
  15. I'm desperately waiting for you to join the YouTube universe. I warn you, there's already a ton of whack jobs on there so you'll really struggle to stand out and build a following.
  16. Oh... that's quite an ask.... he's very far along his path and doesn't know how to get back.
  17. I don't think your theory that disease is only caused by toxins holds any water. How do toxins suddenly invade large populations of people who were healthy just a week or two before the sudden rise in influenza symptoms? Are these mysterious, invisible and undetectable toxins that only a tiny group of cognoscenti are aware of? Surely these toxins have been isolated and identified with research that is verifiable and repeatable? After all, your toxin idols are great minds, no? Santa Claus myths are more believable and a lot more fun.
  18. This is not the environment for private conversations. All posts are open to comment in the public forums. Each poster has to accept that not everyone will agree with their posts and be prepared for comments (that follow forum rules) on their opinion. If you can't stand the heat/embarrassment, step out of the kitchen.
  19. We certainly must encourage each and every doctor to re-discover all the physics, chemistry and bio-chemistry underlying ALL modern health care. Is it possible to have a more moronic notion than this?
  20. Yeah... that word has too many letters and the subtraction operator is confusing.
  21. Repartee with the MAGAns is so boring. The outcome is akin to playing darts with a blind person .
  22. If you get out and walk around a bit, you'll find a spot where the trees don't obscure the forest.
  23. I definitely wish I had kept up my very active lifestyle..... I was too sedentary for too many years and it's hard to claw my way back.
  24. Translation: I'm not going looking for pins that will burst my fantasy balloon.
