  1. The only cow in a small Kentucky town stopped giving milk. The people did some research and found that they could buy a cow just across the state line in Illinois for $200. They brought the cow from Illinois and the cow was wonderful. It produced lots of milk all of the time, and the people were very happy. They decided to acquire a bull to mate with the cow to produce more cows like it. They would never have to worry about their milk supply again. They bought the bull and put it in the pasture with their beloved cow. However, whenever the bull tried to mount the cow, the cow would move away. No matter what approach the bull tried, the cow would move away from the bull and he could not succeed in his quest. The people were very upset and decided to ask the Vet, who was very wise, what to do. They told the Vet what was happening. "Whenever the bull tries to mount our cow, she moves away. If he approaches from the back, she moves forward. When he approaches her from the front, she backs off. An attempt from the side, she walks away to the other side." The Vet thought about this for a minute and asked, "Did you by chance, buy this cow in Illinois?" The people were dumbfounded, since no one had ever mentioned where they bought the cow. "You are truly a wise Vet," they said. "How did you know we got the cow in Illinois?" The Vet replied with a distant look in his eye, "My wife is from Illinois."
  2. A dog and a cat were having an argument on who is the favorite of humans ???????????? The dog says: “Humans like us more. They even named a tooth (canine) after us. Naming such an important body part after us shows that they like us more.” The cat smiles and says: “You’re not really going to win this one you know.”
  3. Key to this for many is whether pensions are to be classed as "earned income".
  4. Has to be a set-up. Only a complete idiot could run out of juice in a Tesla and his DIY "range-extender". The car will have been warning him and telling him how to get to a charger for ages. But apparently it happens often enough for the AAA to have mobile chargers on call. https://newsroom.aaa.com/2022/12/electrifying-aaa-member-benefits/ And none of the "stupid Americans" quips, the AA in the UK also offer EV rescue service.
  5. Yeah ^^^, Child card is 50% too. https://metro.bemplc.co.th/Ticket-Token?ty=3&lang=en
  6. You can also cash-in your old card if it has a balance of over (IIRC) 100 Baht ???? Sadly, although the BTS do have an elder card, it's only available to Thais ????
  7. Yes, you will get a 50% discount when using your Elder card ????
  8. Yes, you can continue paying for Social Security as a foreigner. Not sure what the rate is mind, I'm sure someone more knowledgeable will be along soon.
  9. Yeah, the bill has a history of 5-6 months too.
  10. You can use the PEA App, to check your billing history for > 6 months ????
  11. "My hovercraft is full of eels" This sketch is based on a very real and quite terrible Portuguese to English phrase book from 1855 called "O novo guia da conversação em portuguez e inglez". The author only spoke Portuguese, so he used a Portuguese to French phrasebook as a first reference, then used a French to English phrasebook to complete his translations. The result was so bad, it became infamous, and was popularized by Mark Twain as a kind of surrealist comedy.
  12. I have some "stuff" in-stock, let me try with a 30W panel, baby MPPT and a CV load. See if there's actually any actual correlation with our big system. It may be a "few days" due to other commitments (I always get a "list" from Madam and I have a real job too).
  13. I've found Support or Service [at] sofarsolar.com quite responsive. Don't try calling them unless you speak Mandarin
  14. Check your Country code setting!
  15. This is worrying of course, wrong pins = CT doesn't work correctly. You could try this FaceBook Group https://www.facebook.com/groups/2477195449252168/ There are a couple of other Sofar groups too.
  16. We don't have your exact inverter, but IIRC Auto-Test is only available for the Italian variant. Ours is stuck in Chinese so I don't mess with it.
  17. I pulled into the crowded parking lot at the local shopping centre and rolled down the car windows to make sure my Labrador Retriever Pup had fresh air. She was stretched full-out on the back seat and I wanted to impress upon her that she must remain there. I walked to the curb backward, pointing my finger at the car and saying emphatically, "Now you stay. Do you hear me?" "Stay! Stay!" The driver of a nearby car, a pretty young blonde, gave me a strange look and said, "Why don't you just put the handbrake on?"
  18. An elderly woman’s husband dies. She wants an obit in the paper but she’s a real penny pincher. She calls up the paper and says; “I need to get an obit for my husband in the paper. What’s the cheapest one you got?” The person at the paper says; “Well ma’am, you have to buy at least one line.” The woman says; “Ok, I want it to say ‘Frank’s dead.’” The person on the phone says; “Well ma’am, with one line you can have up to five words.” The old woman says; “Wonderful! Then I want it to say “Frank’s dead. Truck for sale.”
  19. Yeah, there are evidently many, many factors operating here, some of which would appear to be less than obvious. Sunny day with thin, high, cloud seems to slug it more than more obvious clouds, most odd. @gamb00lerare you looking for an automatic adjustment, or just a way of guestimating your current potential generation??
