  1. Generally, nobody does anything more than using decent panels, they are (theoretically) resistant to "normal" hail. How big is the hail you are seeing from the microbursts and how often are they affecting the area where your panels are/will be installed?
  2. Mods are able to correct that "error", for a price
  3. Yeah, that's what I thought at first, a loose baffle etc. But the annoying sound went away with the rock ????
  4. I had an annoying rattle from the back end of the car exhaust, it sounded like a loose baffle or something so I was going to get it looked at on the next service. Then I noticed: - Did that get in there all by itself? Ya think?
  5. Of course, we are in "oops" territory too. The man came on the 19th and read 14,951kWh, I just read the meter 14,928kWh so we are -23kWh I have to read the meter early in the morning as it's located in the middle of a restaurant (not ours) and one gets strange looks from diners if the place is open. The cool weather (no A/C needed) and the pool being out of action (no pump running) are major contributary factors. The man comes next on the 16th of February so there's enough time to correct the issue (or for the weather to correct it for me) ????
  6. Ours is definitely a fellah, but what he does in his off time ...
  7. It doesn't matter where you are in the known universe. Having multiple accounts, in multiple countries (if that's possible) is always better. Eggs in one basket and all that ????
  8. I'll nip into Myanmar to top up on the way back, or for that matter a Russian field which IS within range. Russia, international safety standards? Of course, I'm not saying that this is what they do, but ...
  9. "But honest Mr US Sanctions chap, they arrived with half a tank." (no, not a T34) "Prove otherwise! and we might consider extradition" (a bit like the US did with a certain citizen who ran having killed a young motorcyclist in the UK). Of course, the Thais would never do anything to upset the US, or would they? Remember who the real paymasters are.
  10. Sorry, I really was scratching around for something to say
  11. No because I have one of these: - https://www.nzherald.co.nz/technology/who-you-gonna-call-ghostbusting-gadget-launched/IKYJMXH677URUAQU54DUA6MSDM/
  12. Police Say Taiwanese Actor Might Have Been Held Up For Possession of E-Cigarettes Surely the written report from the checkpoint would detail all charges, fines etc. and the confiscated vapes would be in evidence? Oops, sorry, I forgot where we are and who we are dealing with
  13. I think @JAS21 used something similar for his car port.
  14. Surely it should be a CRACKLING down? Fetching my coat
  15. Apparently, the ones flying here have been bought off-lease.
  16. Which site are you trying to access? It may be geo-blocked for Thailand. You could try a VPN to the US or Europe.
  17. That would be the Tu-70 passenger conversion of the Tu-4, according to the Wiki it never actually went into production. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tupolev_Tu-70
  18. It wouldn't be the first time Russia has copied a Boeing, ok it's not a jet but ... : - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tupolev_Tu-4
  19. I can see parts and service of course, but does re-fuelling a Russian Boeing using fuel made outside the US really break the sanctions?
  20. I've got a 50B memory-stick that says it's 2TB
  21. It's ok, the jets are Choeing (copy Boeing) like the Chonda engine on my genset
  22. Those single-wheel vans can get decidedly "lively" on the back with a load in. I drove a double-wheel Transit in the UK, stable as a rock, then I tried a Hiace in HK, scary with a full load. I'm really not surprised they fall off the road here with monotonous regularity considering the way they are driven ????
  23. Yeah, the sweet-spot for panels was the back-end of 2021. I got 12 x 340W panels from Global House in September 2021 for 2,890 Baht a pop. I should have bought more then; similar panels are around 3,600 Baht now ???? As always, hindsight is 20-20.
