  1. Difficult to put absolutes. If it looks and smells OK then it probably is, but I'm not a food hygienist, nor do I play one on AseanNow. General rule when re-heating is to make sure the centre of the food is "piping hot", whatever that really means.
  2. EDIT Thread cleaned up and re-opened at OPs request. Guys, we all know about those "thingies", you can Google to find good ones. What we can't do is discuss them here, it's in the rules. I didn't write the rules. Please keep future posts within all the forum rules otherwise I have no doubt the thread will get locked forever.
  3. A flame and the earlier posts leading to it have been removed. Let's try to play nicely shall we? Please feel free to use the "Report" button rather than responding in kind.
  4. Discount still in place middle of June.
  5. I would encourage users of this type of pack to charge out-doors and invest in a charging bag. It may not stop the spread completely, but should give you time to escape. Or do what Boeing did with the 787 Dreamliner, and put the pack in a metal box. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/portable-fireproof-safety-bag-lipo-guard-explosion-proof-fire-resistant-charging-sack-battery-safe-bag-for-battey-i3238269350-s12043713390.html
  6. The energy density is improving, to the point that most of the Chinese EV manufacturers are moving to LiFePO4. Even Tesla are using LiFePO4 cells in their standard range models.
  7. I think the limit for the FT rebate is now 300kWh/units.
  8. And LiFePO4 packs are much less likely to go fzzt!
  9. Golden Earwig - Radar Love. L
  10. Better, or worse??
  11. It's certainly worth getting a guesstimate to move the place, but I suspect it would be cheaper to just build a new one. https://www.sanantoniouncovered.com/2014/01/san-antonio-sets-world-record-largest.html

    It really needs to be toughened/tempered for safety. https://www.agc-flatglass.co.th/ should be able to create you a suitable and safe table top. Note, it has to be cut to size before being tempered.
  13. I used to date a girl named Beverley ???? Just watch one taking off. "Trundle, trundle, drone, drone, trundle ..."
  14. Let's pop this over to Visas for a wider audience.
  15. Having to actually pay doesn't seem to have discouraged many passengers. 4bec2aa5-86b9-42d6-86d0-17083a0d985c.mp4
  16. I never really liked the English Electric Canberra (the Lightning was a different beast altogether): - But you really wouldn't want to be on the receiving end of this bad-boy, Handley Page, Victor! OK, I just needed an excuse to post images of some amazing British aircraft! Bonus image. Blackburn Buccaneer.
  17. One of my attempts got "buffalo", at least it has an "f" and could be found on Thai farms. It also got "female goat", "ferret" and "horsefly".
  18. Only if you have a Time-of-Use meter, which most of us don't.
  19. As an addendum to my earlier post, you will likely end up having to provide poles and wiring from the meter position (wherever PEA provide it) to your home. PEA often have crews who moonlight, have the specialist kit, and are much cheaper than a private contractor. Our poles were installed on a Sunday, by a crew in PEA uniforms and driving a PEA crane truck, the poles are stamped "PEA". Pay the supervisor, cash of course.
  20. Provincial Electricity Authority - the people who you need to talk to about getting a supply. Find your local office and go along with a Thai speaker and a Google map of your place which includes the nearest power. They will tell you what they can do for you. Don't forget you will also need water which may or may not be available as a mains supply. Time for a bore ???? EDIT See this thread too: -
  21. Yes, a different rate for "construction" supplies, about double the regular rate. For a permanent supply you need to pass an "inspection", by the authority. IIRC the meter "type" on your bill should tell you what rate you are on. Alternatively, from your total cost and consumption in kWh you should be able to calculate a rough per-unit rate. If it's over about 6Baht per unit you are likely on a construction supply.
  22. Are you still on a construction supply? That's going to be double the rate per kWh of a permanent supply.
  23. Make them hail-proof and nature will develop better hail Baseball-sized hail took out a 5.2-megawatt solar farm in Scottsbluff, Nebraska, on Friday, as part of a giant supercell thunderhead that moved across eastern Wyoming and into Nebraska. https://cowboystatedaily.com/2023/06/27/baseball-sized-hail-smashing-into-panels-at-150-mph-destroys-scottsbluff-solar-farm/
