Yeah. I thought so too but nothing close. I'm coming to the conclusion that management would really benefit from a replacement oven just as soon as the next pizza is ready for cooking. Thanks for the Teka service contact info.

I have a Teka oven and the upper heater element has inconveniently decided to connect itself to the metalwork of the cabinet. That's not a problem with regards to safety as there is plenty of human protection in the house electrics. The problem for me is finding a replacement part. I have looked everywhere on line and can only find the one I want priced in € from a spares company in the EU. Does anyone know of a company in Thailand that sells oven spares?

That surface is or was the polarized film. It's possible that the "glue" is/was the polarized film but not to worry. When you reassemble the screen it will still work but maybe a bit fainter than the original. If you feel you need to get a new polarized film, a quick search on Shopee will do the trick. The magic search words are "polarized film" would you believe. They are very cheap.

I've done this quite a few times and it works but sometimes a new polarized filter is needed. That's the film which goes between the glass and the reflective backing.

I wish too but never going to happen as long as defamation law exists.

Sounds like the government on a good day

Of course a study was done and the results showed many voters would be agreeable to any party that offered 10,000 baht to them.

Yeah. The first we knew about it at Buriram office was a couple of years ago when the officer removed KR 2 from the bundle of docs. and dropped it in the bin. He then explained about the linked information. Like I said you should ask your local office about this. It would save a bit of running around.

One small point. KR 2 hasn't been required for a few years now. Immigration office computers have access to that information, but, as we all know, some offices have been known to invent their own set of rules. It might be an idea to check if it is still required next time you apply for your extension.

The flexibility of the English language is really quite amazing. With so many different dialects and accents and yet we all understand what is meant.

Correction due to calculator brake failure: 10,555 machines should do it. Any one who did not notice this should apply for a job in TAT.

Who said it's not electric? Apparently there's a fair bit of sunshine most of the year so solar power has become extremely popular in Australia. A nice big mobile home with plenty of solar panels on the roof and away you go.

Err. Isn't the main power used at night? So now tell us how many batteries are used for night time running.

That's an interesting idea. Currently aviation (non-military) is using between 52 - 95 Billion Gallons of aviation fuel per year. Reason for the spread of the numbers is due to pre covid flights and during covid flights. A beefed up version of this machine is anticipated to produce 9 million gallons per year so 10.5 machines should do it. A bit disappointing to note this comes from a Camms Comic though.

Nothing to do with stamp shops in Pattaya but did you know there is a stamp museum in Bangkok where you can also buy stamps. I've been there and it's a fantastic place for stamp collectors. https://www.tourismthailand.org/Attraction/thai-philatelic-museum

Two out of three is not so bad. https://indiarugby.com/

What a load of tosh. My wife loves me to objectify her regularly.

Naah. It's heaven on earth if you like that sort of thing.

Fine. What about the men?

Perhaps they don't care about their El Al planes being hit by rockets from wherever.

I doubt there will be a Gaza after this. The Israelis have been looking to take that land for years.

Poor old Buriram got left out again............????

I have my ATS set as follows. N Primary = Solar inverter R Backup = Grid Reasoning is that my house is completely solar powered but if batteries are too low at night then inverter will switch off 'till batteries are good again and ATS will switch over to GEC. Once the batteries are back up to something like full then the ATS will switch back to inverter output. I should point out that this condition has never happened in the 13 years I have been solarised. The ATS gets tested every time I grind my rice. I simply switch off/isolate the inverter output and over goes the ATS to grid supply. To revert to normal solar power I simply switch on/un-isolate the inverter.

That's the safest way. I also have a rice mill but only a single phase 2.2 kW motor. That's 10 amps running. My 8kW inverter is OK with that but, as has been said, startup current will see a short lived 50A or more burst which is 11kW or more. That's ok if the motor starts off load. The inverter will handle it. Trouble is, there have been a few occasions when things go wrong and the motor stalls. In those conditions the current is limited only by the resistance of the motor winding and that current is really high. I always switch over on my ATS to GEC (Greedy Electric Company) when milling.

Easy Peasy. Check out combiner boxes. These are boxes with fused input terminals for strings of panels which need to be paralleled. The outputs from the terminals are diode isolated from each other into a common connection. There will be a DC circuit breaker and a surge suppressor at the common output which then goes out of the box to your charge controller or inverter solar input. Just make sure the Voc and charge controller/inverter input power (less derating factor) is not exceeded.
