WOW......... You built a fortress. Fort Knox seems a little shy next to your house ???? I wish I saw this page before I built my house as I might have incorporated some of the insulation ideas but I wouldn't go that style. My house is about 150Smr including the front balcony. Big windows all around and no bars as I like to see the view outside. As for the inverter and batteries - all I want is to create a full house UPS. Electricity here is unstable with lots of up/down voltage - killing my LED lights, and very frequent blackouts. I recently learnt that Tesla makes complete house UPS systems but can't get them in Thailand AFAIK and a while back they stopped selling the UPS as stand alone and only sell it as part of a complete solar system. In the US they sell the UPS for US$10K, but again, only if you buy the complete solar system...

Growatt SPF 5000 ES with Wifi Hybrid inverter Price 42,500 THB on Solar-Thailand.com Deye SUN-5K-SG03LP1 Hybrid, Off-Grid Inverter ฿47,900.00 and Deye SUN-10K-SG04LP3 Hybrid, Off-Grid Inverter ฿95,900.00 on solaris.co.th. Both Deye and Growatt mention 8V low voltage battery. Does that mean batteries included in the price or those are the supported batteries?

That depends on the item\seller. For some items such as heavy dog food bags in my experience the delivery charges double when you order 2 bags. For other items such as 1 kg bags of beans I found out that the cheapest way was to buy 4 bags each time.

The only way the masks MIGHT protect from anything is by proper single short time use. If you keep putting on and off the same mask all day and many even many days, hanging out around your neck between each time you use it - worthless.

Any recommendations for such an inverter? One that can switch seemlesly between battery and main power and have the batteries charged by the main? Costs?

What a title. If any member here would use such words it would be <deleted>...

I know many people who got the earlier variants before vaccines were rolled out, all of them survived to tell the story and none of them hospitalised. Just the other day there was a story of a 105 years old Thai guy, although treated in hospital, but unvaccinated and was released from hospital in less than a fortnight.

Thailand might be desperate to revive tourism but removing all COVID restrictions is the right thing to do regardless. As I wrote earlier - most of the world has moved on long ago.

I think that the limitations put on cannabis so far are more than enough. No minors would be just right. Pregnant and breast feeding women is already over the top as there are no such restrictions on those women in regards to cigarettes, alcohol or any other substances that are equally and even more harmful in their condition.

BS. Most of the world has moved forward long ago. No need for testing\vaccination proof when going to Europe and many other countries around the world. Nothing to do with desperation.

Good morning. How is it to finally see things as they really are?

First of all, there are laws prohibiting sale and use by people under 20, pregnant and breast feeding women (although it would be hard to check these 2 points as I can't imagine women allow the sellers to squeeze their boobs before settling them...). As for the fact that younger than 20 can get weed easily - that was also the case before it became legal, and goes the same for alcohol and tobacco products. The good thing, in my opinion, is that since it's legal you can get better product and if they can get weed easily it might keep those kids away from the real bad drugs.

NEVER! It's mine!!! I earned each and every Stang in dishonesty and it's gonna stay in my pocket! Sincerely(?) Tony

I really don't understand there long ping pong discussion here. It's so simple to use 2 passports and you get all citizen's rights in both countries. Why would you want to enter Thailand with a non Thai passport when you actually have 1? Go to the foreign passport line both when coming in and going instead of the that line. If for some reason she would like to travel to Laos, Burma, Cambodia - much easier on a Thai passport. There are far more advantages to be in Thailand as a Thai than as a non Thai.

I've seen cops going to a local school in my area from time to time so I asked one of them what's going on. The answer was they come to talk to the kids about the harm of drugs. As it was a primary school I asked him if the kids are not too young and he said it's never too early to start with anti drugs education.

I'm pretty sure that if you asked them, that's where they'll stick it for you ....

I live in a small non touristic town too. Ever since the day mask regulations were dropped I don't wear one not carry it with me. 7-11, family mart, any other shop, big shopping centers in the nearest big city - no one ever said anything about it. Only in 2 small bank branches I was asked to wear a mask. As for others around - some still wear them even when driving alone in a car or riding a bike, but more and more don't. As for the temperature checks at 7-11 and such - me as well as most people just ignore the machines. I visit a couple of local schools in my area and most kids are without masks on their faces. Some wear them around their necks or arms. I've been to Europe a couple of months ago and even there you can see some people still wearing masks, and some are even double masked. As time goes by less people will wear them and eventually only those who wore masks before COVID will continue to wear them.

No. The electricity in Thailand is provided and maintained by higher powers

How did anyone could get that out of this clip? What am I missing??

I already have the red part. Looking for the white part on the top.

Sorry, I kinda thought people would understand my reply was sarcastic so I didn't explicitly mentioned it. So just to clarify - my previous reply was sarcastic...

Yes, the arrival card was a bummer. Many tourists failed and many potential tourists didn't come here because of that card

I think he was talking about his experience 2 years ago when he wrote he already sold the car and had to take the older model car for a very nice discount: two years ago i buy a bmw ad told the dealer i don't want a old model i want the year model and when the car arrived i check the vin and it was a old new car so i refused to take delivry finaly i take delivry whit a 70.000 tb discount because we all ready sale are car and we have nothing to drive!.

Well, some were just sued for decimation even when reporting the truth (BKK post reporter and editor who published a story about cracks on the runway of BKK airport before it even opened, a tv5 reporter that was dismissed for reporting a not so flattering story, and many more). And yes, many of the well over 3000 dead in the "war on drugs" had nothing to do with drugs.

Were you here during the time of his tenure? He crushed any and all opposition and paid for every single vote he got, and then he robbed the country blind. He tripled his personal wealth in 5 years of ruling, locked up (or worse) anyone who dared opposing or criticising him. The good news is that if the court will limit the tenure of a prime minister in Thailand he won't be able to get the job again after 5 years of personal ruling and few more through puppets
