Thai DUI products face stricter controls amid global conflicts
Muhendis replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
I thought DUI meant "Driving Under the Influence" so was curious to see what products will now face stricter controls. -
Thailand’s population ages like fine wine, marking a global trend

Would that be a single malt? -
Using earthed computer cord with unearthed power outlet
Muhendis replied to george's topic in The Electrical Forum
The main job of this computer power supply filter is to prevent spikey bits of high frequency switching, which are generated by the computer power supply, from getting into the mains wiring. If that happens too much then there could be interference problems in other gadgets plugged in to the same supply. This means that the shocking feeling is more likely to be high frequency rather than mains voltage although both are likely to be present. -
Using earthed computer cord with unearthed power outlet
Muhendis replied to george's topic in The Electrical Forum
The small electric shocks will be from the computer power supply. These normally require earth connection too an electronic filter. If there is no grounded case then the filter will discharge into anything which touches the case ie you. Fixing this depends on if there is a local ground anywhere near the computer. If there is, then a wire connected between computer case and ground will stop the "tickle" you get from the case. -
For any non-electrical persons watching this, Please do not do this at home. I think it may be a joke................

It's that pink Barby look. I like it but might be a bit impractical especially in an emergency.

smart watch to monitor constantly blood pressure and pulse rate
Muhendis replied to fvw53's topic in General Topics
I got myself one of these "smart" watches quite some time ago. It does all the things it says but to try changing from BP to calculator for example, became nigh on impossible. Tap the screen? Nope. Drag finger across the screen in any direction? Nope. Nothing seemed to behave according to the manual and when in simple time mode battery only lasted two days. It is now consigned to a dark and dingy corner of a seldom used draw in a room rarely entered. -
Good thinking The oven is an HA-820

For various reasons I am normally quite skeptical of You Tube videos, but this one caught my eye. There is no new technology involved but the amalgamation of wind and solar into one (very big) bolt-on unit looks useful. I have never seen the combination of the two Savonius and Darrieus Vertical Axis Wind Turbines (VAWT) before. There is some quite interesting stuff on this video but the solar/wind harvesting bit is between 03:22 and 04.23 minutes https://youtu.be/vRSfmqjcb_0?si=nOPeM-bABD0F9sRJ Hope you enjoy.

Sequel to this thread: Reply from Teka was to the effect. "Your ovens old so no spares available. Suggest you buy a new oven" I'm not surprised since it was installed over ten years ago.

Thaksin Underwent Surgery, Now Recuperating: Corrections Dept
Muhendis replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
In an orthopaedic operating room it would most likely be bones. He was in there for 5 hours. Big operation? Something must have gone wrong to need intensive care afterwards. -
Your into the frontiers of science and technology with polarized films. Maybe there's a You Tube which does it. Alternatively buy some polarized film and experiment. Then post on here.

Experts say Thailand’s foreign policy needs to be reviewed
Muhendis replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
Minor correction: "With friends like these, who needs enemas" -
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.

Little need for “digital wallet” scheme : Bank of Thailand
Muhendis replied to snoop1130's topic in Thailand News
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.
