It's very difficult to compare other people's usage with what yours "should be". For example, we use around 35kWh per day, inverter A/C only at night and we don't have a pet penguin (set to 26C). Our biggest single power user - Madam's ruddy koi pond ???? Luckily we have a big chunk of solar so we are not paying PEA for 80% of our usage.

I assume you have a new meter now. Can you guesstimate what a month would be from what it reads now vs what it read when installed? At least then you would have something to go in to bat with (assuming your guesstimate is less than they are asking of course). Is your bill from MEA/PEA or "someone else"??

I'd go with a 20A MCB, ChinT are a mid range Chinese maker that won't break the bank ????

No! In the baby box you have the arrestor and a 1-pole breaker (MCB) in the live to protect it. 3 wires from the baby box, E goes to the earth bar in your main unit, N goes to the N bar, L goes to the outgoing live terminal of your existing main breaker. Probably the easiest place to pick up the live is from the leftmost terminal on the live bus-bar, a bit of 6mm2 should fit in the same terminal with the bus bar. Nothing needs to change in your existing box so that's nice and easy. You can put the baby CU in a convenient place, but keep the wires as short as possible.

There are gazillions on Lazada, a 4 unit one would fit one of the 100kA arrestors and a single pole MCB (you just need to open the live). Something like this https://www.lazada.co.th/products/4-consumer-unit-4-channel-2-4-i2676671412-s9640187556.html Ours came from Mega-Home as I'm the instant gratification type, this one is on our solar inverter hence the 2-pole MCB and smaller arrestors. Or you could get a bigger one and move your incomer and RCBO into it before feeding to your existing box. Many, many ways to go about this job ????

Yes ^^^, services, flooding issues and most important access rights. Who owns the access to the main road, if it's across private land is there an official easement in place permitting permanent access? Gentleman's agreements have an annoying habbit of getting screwed up by a less-than-gentleman who sees the $$$ ????

How are the green cells performing??

Putting two A/C units on one breaker isn't ideal but shouldn't be an issue. Ideally you incoming surge suppression needs to be connected as close to the incoming supply as possible, so at the left end of your CU. Some shuffling would be needed. Also, a decent 80 or 100kA suppressor is more than one unit wide so it still really needs to live in a separate box, not difficult to arrange. If I was doing it, I'd take the surge suppression directly off the switched side of the main breaker. We have a unit similar to this https://www.lazada.co.th/products/b100-2p-60ka-100ka-385v-ac-1pn-spd-i3487044637-s12946508088.html it's 3 CU positions wide, add to that it's MCB. A "garage" CU box would house it all nicely.

Who is asking for the $$$? PEA/MEA or someone else? I find it "interesting" that 8 meters were "damaged". Does your bill look something like this? (could be orange instead of purple)

Nothing to stop you adding a small DIN box to contain your surge arrestor and it's MCB. Or you could rationalise your circuits to free up an MCB which could then feed your external box. That little AVR looks OK, as you say it's a bit light on surge suppression but give it a nice big beast in the CU and you're gold.

Odd that this is affecting multiple homes? @JuanMatus do you get your bill from the authority (MEA or PEA) or a private landlord? At 6,800 for the 3 months I'd probably just pay up and see what your future bills are (without our solar our bill would be that per month ???? ).

A troll / inflamatory post and sensible replies have been removed.

I started this thread as a bit of fun, which is exactly why the chap who built this car did it. He knew full well that the 10" wheels and tyres stood no chance of handling all those horses even with the smarts of the Tesla control gear. You know how much that mattered? Not at all! Since we seem to have degenerated into bickering this thread is now locked! Sorry to those who genuinely interested in just what you can do with a 60s chassis and 20s tech. If anyone wants to give myself or any online mod a really good reason to re-open please feel free to send a PM making your case.

Also. If you don't have the original .apk installation files you may find Apk Extractor useful. Find it in the Play Store.

Some off-topic bickering posts have been removed. It's not good netiquet to post all in upper-case (it's the internet equivalent of shouting) and it's less easy to read so we would rather you didn't.

Even on it's orginal 34hp (850cc, the 1071cc Cooper S had about 70GGs) the mini was enormous fun to drive (slowing down for corners, optional!), so in "road mode" (100hp) it should be about 3 times as much fun. The whole point of this conversion is that it's sheer fun!

Yeah, a fair amount of compromise to keep the beast as close to the original as possible.

Got a Classic Mini? - How about a bolt-in conversion kit!! Sadly, it's not DIY due to liability issues.

Remember those horses are Tesla horses with some very smart electronics, traction control is your friend. 0-60 measured at 5.9 seconds, pretty satisfactory on those teeny wheels.

Yeah, my Uncle Phil (Mums brother) had a white Cooper S (black roof of course) which cornered like it was on rails. Enormous fun to ride with him (I was way too young to drive).

It even has the same (sort of) range as the e-Mini.

Yeah, I have the Ryobi version, it just works. Use wet on tiles and concrete, dry on Shera board.

Post a photo with the lid off (care please). We can gleen a lot of idea about the sparks from simply looking. We've used moonlighting PEA chaps in the past with no issues but you really never know. As to finding a qualified / licenced sparks for domestic ...

Looks good to me ???? Not a manufacturer I'm aware of but if everything feels solid you're good to go.
