A quick re-visit (ok, shameless bump) as I've just started bacon and ham which I've been rather remiss with and Madam (plus grandkids) are complaining about the store-bought stuff I'll probably make some crumpets too. EDIT Instructions for crumpets https://www.warburtons.co.uk/news/crumpet-recipe-revealed/

A little action at Pak Kret high tide. And we have some definite upness going on too. Nothing for us to worry about yet, but a close eye is being kept.

The one I know about is linked in the OP http://water.eon-solution.com/waterlevel01/public/live.php I'm sure there will be others, hopefully members can come up with some results.

We do have a slight rise in level here, 1.5m below "worry" but not a whole lot of stuff happening at Pak-Kret (latest high-tide).

Do keep us down river from you informed, forewarned is forearmed!

A couple of off-topic attempts to de-rail the thread have gone walkabout.

Development is going well ...

They let Old Ploddy out of jail in 2020, he's 79 now, still in his prime! Now, about those water pushers ...

Do you ever get that feeling of déjá-vu??

Low tide at Pak Kret. Did someone pull out a plug or something??

The letters are being duplicated as we speak Not sure if the old guy is still around but ...

Yup, that would work. Of course a decent hybrid inverter and sensible battery isn't going to be cheap (probably 3 grand US ish). The solar panels are the lowest-cost part of the equation. It would be crazy not to include them 🙂

@passiflora no regulator is going to fix that low a level, you need to disconnect way before it gets that bad. Actually, that looks like a HV phase loss upstream from your village transformer. You may wish to re-visit the payback time for solar, things have become a lot more competitively priced in recent years. Or, alternatively get an auto-start genset and transfer switch (much cheaper than solar but it needs fuel) to bridge over your low-voltage periods.

Whilst this is true, most (if not all) modern wall-wart switchers are "universal" and good for 100V-250V which makes them almost immune to power excursions.

The simplest way to mitigate under (and over) voltage would be to install an under/over relay device, many are available on Lazada etc. These cut the power when the voltage goes outside the set range, of course you then have no power to whatever it is protecting. Alternatively, voltage regulators are available (both small and large) which regulate your voltage, at least to an extent. How low is your voltage going? Do you have logs you can show PEA? You're probably not going to get compensation but you might get them to fix (or at least improve) it. Or, do like we and others have done and install solar with a battery for backup, say farewell to any other power cuts with the bonus of reduced power bills.

@somebody is real people, the post reactions are anonymous (and have been for some time) to prevent "stalking by emoji" which, believe it or not, was a real problem.

Post will still have the reactions; you just won't be informed via a notification.

High at Pak Kret, not any significant difference. That said our local level is up by 15cm to 1.45m below worry, start of the surge?

True, DDP works just fine though, no duty or VAT to pay 🙂
