  1. No idea why, but this popped into my field of view today.
  2. Yup, without the TM6 there's no record of where you are staying. Nobody checks. Even if you stay a few nights in a hotel and they do send a TM30 there's no actual check that your whole stay is covered by such forms. It's really totally pointless.
  3. Try here http://wmsc.rid.go.th/
  4. Not seen a site yet this year ???? Meanwhile Madam has ordered sand and sandbags after Puyai Baan came on the speakers saying they were available for free.
  5. It's doing the same for me too, W11, Chrome. Most odd.
  6. This one? There's a water trap lurking under the hood somewhere, it needs draining. The manual will tell you where and how. You might also want to replace the fuel filter.
  7. If they are never going to need to interact with immigration, I wouldn't bother with the TM30, you're not a hotel. Over the years we've had friends and family stay with us and never done any paperwork. No issues whatever.
  8. If you get there early there's on-road parking right opposite the entrance to the immigration building. I've never needed to park anywhere else.
  9. Video on FaceBore, he's certainly not just trundling along ???? https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=666040371524963
  10. At this juncture I think enough bickering and misinformation has been supplied.
  11. Still pretty constant level (there are tidal effects of course) @ 102cm below "Worry". There's a bunch on the way from up-north of course.
  12. As above the A/C is going to be the killer ???? What size (BTU) are the units (and do they look "old"), what temperature do you set?
  13. In this case I would use the battery as the "source" as it's capable of a much larger current than the inverter. Ideally, a bi-directional breaker would be best.
  14. Please define "enough wattage" so others can assist you in your quest for perfect dryness. To answer the OP, we have a drying rack, clothes go from the machine and either get ironed and hung up or go on the rack if ironing not needed. Never had anything go stinky even when the weather isn't perfect. Perhaps you need to update your laundry technique? We also have a tumble dryer, Madam likes to use it for towels as it "makes them fluffy".
  15. It would be OK assuming the ratings are realistic. I don't like the single-insulated "speaker cord" type wire although it's common here. For an extension that gets moved around, trodden on etc. it's just too prone to damage. If you already have it, it will be safe enough, but if not then one of the smaller power boards from Lazada will do the trick but do check it's really 3 core cable. Or go to the big box stores and buy a 2 or 4 outlet traily (3 outlet might be available) a length of 1.5mm2 3-core flex and a 3-pin plug and make your own ????
  16. @Sophon please can you post an actual link to that item so that it can be purchased?
  17. Well it was just the first line of the first page. Please post an image of exactly what you are looking for.
  18. Yeah, the bottom right is the location. Warning Will Robinson. Warning!!! I'm not recommending any of those, or even guaranteeing they are 3-core. For that matter I'm not sure I'd trust a 100 Baht cord. That's just the first row of the first page, do check very carefully if the cord is actually 3-core, some of the later listings actually have detail of the cord or you could ask the seller what the cord is.
  19. I've already been to Lotus's today so I'm not making a special trip to check and photograph.
  20. Yeah, and it wouldn't pass muster in the UK on anything but the smallest installations. BUT It's the cheapest way to ensure safety.
  21. It depends upon the inspector and just how "inspecty" he's feeling. Official requirement is a front-end RCBO. We passed fine with a UK style split board (actually several sub-boards) but our man spent most of the time gassing with Madam and complaining that the (PEA installed) incoming supply didn't have equal drops between the poles.
  22. Yeah, there are an increasing number of off-brand plug-in boards on the market with breakers that "fit" in Schneider boards. CCS are as good as any of the mid-range Chinese units.
  23. You would normally put the fridge/freezer on an unprotected circuit so that you don't come home to a thawed mess. Unfortunately, with a front-end RCBO in a Schneider box that's not really possible. You could replace the incomer with a regular MCB and then use RCBOs on "risky" circuits leaving others unprotected. However, this is not strictly in line with the Thai regs so you would have to have it done after your MEA/PEA inspection for a permanent meter.
