  1. The microphone detectors are a lot cheaper, so worth a shot to start with.
  2. Check the obvious first. A common issue is toilet float valves dribbling (turn them off at the wall rather than relying on sight). See if that helps. Any particularly green plants in the garden? Obvious damp patches? Failing all that you need a man with a leak detector (detects leaks by the sound it makes). There are quite a few detectors on Lazada, no idea how well they work mind 😞 One of many: - https://www.lazada.co.th/products/-i5530054188-s23510299903.html
  3. I just completed this quiz. My Score 10/100 My Time 127 seconds  
  4. That it has moved was incorrect information., nothing has changed as I noted in that post 🙂 Open 24 hours.
  5. I do hope you used 25mm2 rather than 25AWG 🙂 THW is definitely NOT suitable for underground use even in conduit. And you are right, re-using it after exposure to UV and weather would be unwise anyway. NYY is the stuff you want, whilst it is rated for direct burial sticking it in conduit give extra mechanical protection. What you've got should be good to go 🙂
  6. Nooooo. Now this won't leave my brain (what's left of it).
  7. Krung Thai Bank did it for me no real issues. They needed my passport as well as my pink ID (and my driving licence) but what came out worked with the SS Office 🙂
  8. I'd rather use Gemini too, although he's not always correct.
  9. Are you saying that you see 39V at the input side of the breaker when it is off (open) and that drops to 7V when you turn it on (closed)? That would suggest that your pump is now pulling too much current for the panel, or possibly you have a bad connection in your wiring panel to breaker 😞 Do you have a couple of car/bike batteries you can connect to get 24V and feed the pump directly?
  10. Data centres now account for 21% of all electricity consumption in Ireland. CSO findings come amid an increasingly heated debate about data centres and their energy demands. Electricity consumption by data centres has risen from just 5 per cent of the total generated in 2015 to 21 per cent last year, according to the Central Statistics Office (CSO). CSO figures show the energy consumed by the centres eclipsed the amount used by urban households in 2023, which accounted for 18 per cent of total metered electricity consumption. Rural households accounted for 10 per cent. Quarterly metered electricity consumption by data centres increased steadily from 290 gigawatt hours in the first quarter of 2015 to 1,661 gigawatt hours in the fourth quarter of 2023, a jump of 473 per cent, the agency said. The findings come amid an increasingly heated debate about data centres, their energy demands and whether playing host to so many of them runs counter to the State’s climate policy. https://www.irishtimes.com/business/2024/07/23/electricity-consumption-by-data-centres-rises-to-21-eclipsing-urban-households/
  11. Even the ISS is getting involved with gorilla smuggling!
  12. The very first thing our construction crew built was their accommodation, complete with power and toilet (on a concrete ring septic). Most of them actually lived off-site and the house was off-limits once work ended. They were mostly Khmer and kept a very tidy worksite clearing up rubbish at the end of each day.
  13. This ^^^. Can you hear "gurgling" at the pump when it's not running (non-return valve leaking)? Is there an isolating valve on the pump outlet you can turn off?
  14. Exactly what I did It did take a while to arrive mind, unlike stuff from China 😞
  15. Rather like Thai sparkies then 😞 At least the "bang" test is immediate, a drip from a pipe can take ages to become apparent.
  16. We're running on an Orange Pi 3 LTS, no need for a screen (never even connected one for setup), the web interface is pretty good. Main dashboard (running off-grid hence the grid voltage of 6.5V): - Click on the "Inverter" icon and you get this: -
  17. Yeah, I disconnected from the web and Solarman/Deyecloud after Deye deliberately bricked a bunch of inverters in the US. I'm not paranoid, they really are out to get me Solar Assistant runs on a Raspberry-Pi and is quite happy to not be connected to the web.
