  1. Around where I live, traffic tends to use the left lane except when overtaking. The fast, racing types, are granted free access to the right hand lane It is not so often that slow trucks use the right hand lane. The most noticeable examples of bad driving are the corner cutters. It's almost as though the driver sees a straight line from A - B regardless of the right hand bend/turn. As many have said. There is absolutely minimal notice taken of the rules of the road.
  2. Blue PVC pipes (and other colours too) are neither glued nor cemented together. They are welded using a PVC solvent. If the joint has been done properly, it is virtually impossible to take it apart. As has been said. Get new pipes, joints and fittings. They are dirt cheap and very easy to fit.
  3. I wouldn't have bothered with sine language. Clamp everything in position. Mark where welding/cuts are needed then go for it with angle grinder and welder.
  4. Another way to resolve the triangle which wasn't bourne with a right angle, is to make lots of right angles by drawing lines perpendicular to each side and bisecting the angle opposite. The, if you want you can sort out all the other bits https://uploads-cdn.omnicalculator.com/images/height-freeform.png I also remember my old school report. The two things which stood out most were; Could have done better A good listener The first bullet point was a straight forward cut'n paste at pretty well every opportunity. The second strange remark was from the music master. He didn't like brass bands and I just happened to be principle soloist in the national and local schools and youth brass bands at the time.
  5. Made in china Mango stuffed chicken for dinner?
  6. Aah. Yes. The memories come flooding back.....SOH - CAH - TOA and all that.
  7. That should anchor it well enough. Not so exciting but definitely safe. Looking very professional. Will you be mounting your panels directly onto the steelwork or are you going to fit roofing sheets also?
  8. Absolutely but..... "Warnings were issued about the risk of overheating, which can lead to fires and harmful smoke emissions." I would have expected to see the house burnt to the ground in the case of a lithium battery thermal runaway. The house has had a wall blown out by an explosion. It is conceivable that the batteries got hot and caused a gas explosion, in which case there is a good case for closing down companies which need to issue danger warnings with their badly designed goods.
  9. Why not add the existence of a gas supply. Focusing on solar and batteries is misleading
  10. Is your real name Trump by any chance?
  11. I expect Trump has worked out a business deal with Putin same as he wants to do with Zelensky. Trump will continue doing deals with both sides with little regard for the war and politics.
  12. Whilst looking for something on Youtube I stumbled upon this. If you are of delicate disposition don't open the link. Make sure you have a good dashcam. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8b6MA88ZurY&t=395s
  13. Not Thaksin but a good ploy to get his sister back. She has in depth experience of such schemes.
  14. I just completed my imm. 'O' extension based on marriage. All went smoothly except for the KR2 (Kor Ror 2) requirement. Last year it was not required because the immigration office got it via their computer system. This year no such luck. The system has reverted back to the previous KR2 requirement. We (wife and self) had to pop round to the local Amphur office for the document. No big deal and I'm sure some of you know this routine already but in case you are not aware, you will now need to get your own KR2 in and present it with your other documents.
  15. It's not Thailand's common ticketing system at all. It's Bangkok's common ticketing system. Not available in Buriram.......
  16. You got me thinking of paragliding for some reason.... Add an electric motor and it's a solar powered UFO.
  17. Eh????? Don't forget to send pictures of the car port when it tips up. Fulcrum being the pillars level with the back of the cars.............
  18. I thought you did things like that yourself....... What's the weight of the panels on this overhang?
  19. Absolutely soo much better than P type I recently replaced all my dubiously spec'd panels with a bunch of 580 watt half cut N's and was also amazed. I didn't have the bifacial ones though.
  20. Are you completely insane? This one is available at Thaiwatsadu for 570 Baht Buy it. get someone to fit it and everybody is happy That's what did when I had a new water supply https://www.thaiwatsadu.com/_next/image?url=https%3A%2F%2Fpim.thaiwatsadu.com%2FTWDPIM%2Fweb%2FWatermark%2FImage%2F0205%2F60006934_1.jpg&w=3840&q=75
  21. Maybe you missed it but Chinese visitor numbers are down. The blame is on Thailand and it's perceived lack of action against call centre recruitment of Chinese from Thailand.
  22. Ahaa. There's no hiding such important detail from you. However I should point out that the power for that outlet comes from my solar inverter so it makes sense to invert the sockets to make sure the electrons come out the right way up. It's a sort of double inversion so to speak.
  23. I got a few of those Häco plugs too. They struck me as being a bit "iffy" in terms of size etc. Didn't stop me using them though. Something along similar lines is this Chang socket which I put to good use. Note te earth hole is above the L & N holes just like in the UK.
