Why do people want to live in Isaan?

Maybe try Iraq? -
I thought the same but he said it was addressed to his wife and she is the owner Still don't think it would be that easy if caught

Just came back from Krabi and met a French guy who had a small restaurant and was shooting cans in his large back yard I used to enjoy doing this and asked where he bought it. He said he shipped it over 10 years ago before you needed a license. I thought you would still need a licence but he reckons its not needed. Only reason I am asking Is he said I can buy it but don't fancy having problems with getting it licensed as thought buying from a shop involved registration and licence needed which this would have neither. Probably OK in the middle of nowhere but he is on a main road

I am only guessing the consumption as our current house has 2 air cons running around 20 hours a day and usually pay around 4-5k a month Our new house will have 2 addition air cons and a pool so just an estimate it will be 8-9k but then the 2 extra air cons will only be used maybe 6 hours each a day but will be for 2 large rooms With the pool pump as well might be 7-8k but oh and also water pumps as well .No EV car but lots of electronics 4-5k is March-July i just got a 4200 baht bill last month so expect it to drop to maybe 3k by December

Hi just got back from the UK Not yet decided as tiles/kitchen/pool are still being fitted I was thinking i should stay in the house for a few months to get an idea of how many panels (Battery if i go that way) are needed i am guessing we will be paying 8-9k baht a month on electricity so will look into it in a few months Probably be finished start of September which will be cooler than April crazy heat time but at least i can add a few panels around that time if needed

We will have our house finished in August and looking at fitting solar panels Last time we looked we thought we would need many more panels but now new panels are 700w We also hoped we could run the meter backwards in the day but now have a nasty digital meter I remember Crosy ? saying to look at the units you use between 9am-4.30pm to see how many units you use and how many panels would be needed Probably best to live in the house for 2-3 months to get a good idea Would like to get the panels up straight away really while the car port is being built (12x 6 m) We have a 1,5hp pool pump which i am told you should run 4 hours morning and afternoon Would it be a good idea to install a system that would give say 60 units a day so would need panels and battery as that is near to what we would use Also told the installation cost can double the price of the DIY install Is it a good idea going through Homepro/Global? Many thanks for your time

How much to set up solar for 40-50 kwh per day
kwak250 replied to kwak250's topic in Alternative/Renewable Energy Forum
Getting nearer to installing Solar We will check what we are using in the day and maybe do without a battery and just run 2 air cons at night (2 bedrooms) If we get extra solar panels for 4 air cons in the day and swimming pool pump to run in the day this might be the way to go. -
Crime Foreign Motorcyclist Performs Dangerous Wheelies on Pattaya Streets
kwak250 replied to Georgealbert's topic in Pattaya News
People saying he is a pot head If he was a pot head he probably wouldn't be bothered to try and wheelie down the road . Most stoners have enough trouble getting off the sofa than to try and do stand up wheelies apart from.being paranoid Much more chance of it being alcohol related -

What pool leds do you recommend? We are in the middle of having a pool built and looking at leds I like the idea of being able to change the colour of the leds but also concerned that the leds will fail I have seen a few people say they have gone through a few sets of leds and we have been told the good ones are around 10k each Not sure how many we will put in at that price! If they last then better to pay 10k for a few years than buy 4-5k ones and change them out after a year
