  1. I think the missus will have one before I do.

    She does a lot of local driving, and will never have to worry about kWhours.

    That's my biggest concern.

    The range.

    Im on the road quite a lot, so it just wouldn't work for me, even though a solar powered home is in the pipeline, with plans to make the carport a solar charge station at a later date.

  2. There's a good free vpn with UK servers called orbot.

    Its from the same developers as tor browser.

    Im not 100% sure, but think I read that it's good for iplayer.

    There's also an app called UK TV & radio that's OK for the free to air channels Inc. BBC and itv.

  3. Lampang - Uttaradit - Phitsanulok - Khon Kaen - korat - Buriram.

    I drove that way about 3 weeks ago and it was clear of checkpoints, but I went north of Khon Kaen, across to Kalasin.

    Its a nice drive with winding roads through the mountains.

    Plenty of gas stations and rest areas along the way.

  4. Someone told me years ago that most tv's have LG components inside, but that was before Samsung shot to providence.

    I come from a time when you needed large muscles to press the buttons to change channels, so they all seem good to me these days.

    Were on our second Samsung now. The first lasted about 8 years, and to be honest, even if the screen didn't turn misty, was due replacing anyway because of all the new tech available.

    No matter what you buy, you'll probably replace it with a hologram in 8 years.

  5. It will be collecting data from your phone.

    You can eather uninstall it, or go to settings-apps-permissions, and deny it permissions.

    As for the android box, if its anything like mine, then it can feel free to snoop around for data in that because there isn't any.

  6. I've also ordered quite a few items from China on lazada, and found the service reliable.

    I would suggest that you wait patiently for it to arrive, but in the meantime, I have an app on my smartphone that allows me to use my phone as a mouse toggle device using a Bluetooth connection.

    If I can send the link shortly, you could use that until you get both remotes.

    I'll look now how I can send it.
