Interesting!

What happens after the 1 year? Does it fall back to be a normal prepaid simcard?

Is it possible to keep your old number from True?

I'm talking about the pipe from the underground Tank to the pump inlet.

On top of this pipe is a plug what you use to prime the pump before you switch it on.

I wrapped this plugs thread in new teflontape and have no problems anymore.

I think I found the problem.

It looks like the plug on top of the pipe from the Tank had an air leak.

I seald it with new teflon band and the pump runs a lot smoother now, shuts of sooner and havent noticed any air in the pipes today.

Fingers crossed that it is solved.

Thanks for your input.

Hi,

the problem started about 2 weeks ago when the Waterpump stopped working over night.

I woke up in the morning and realized that there is no water in the taps.

I checked the pump and it was very hot. Switched it off for a while to cool down and then it worked for half a day before it doesn't switch of.

My first idea was that it doesnt get enough water and I checked the footvalve in my underground tank.

It was very corroded and the spring was missing (rotten away). So I replaced it with a new one.

Since then the Pump working ok put it takes longer to build up the presure to switch of and evey morning we have a lot of air trapped in our watersystem.

I drained the pump,primed it again and released all the air around the house and garden from taps, showers and toilets but it's still the same every morning (no problem at daytime).

Does anyone have an idea what the Problem can be?

Maybe the presure switch or the Airvalve or is the pump on it's last legs?

I have a Mitsubishi WP-305QS Waterpump (4 years old) in a 2 story house with 6 bathrooms and a pool.

Would be great if someone has a advise what to do.

thanks

Update:

I've finished the regrouting with the Weber epoxy grout about 3 Months ago and very happy with the result.

I used about 15 buckets for the whole pool, expensive but well worth it.

No leaks anymore.

@Crossy

forget to reply but your photo helped a lot, thanks.

Got a gallon for 180 Baht at the nearest mom&pop hardwaretore.

changed the whole house to Daikin Inverter last year (4 small ones like the one in your link and 1 big 360° unit for the Livingroom). 

All working great with 0 problems so far.

thats great, thanks Crossy

thanks again, I'll try my luck tomorrow.

thanks guys

maybe you know the Thai translation for it too?

I used google translate at Thai Whatsadu last time and got the usual blank stares.

Hi,

does anybody know if I can get it somewhere in Pattaya?

I tried some Pool shops but they have only the 20L canisters.

cheers

I'll use the webercolor-poxy for my mosaic tiled pool.

I hope by the end of net week I'll be finished with removing the old grout.

I'll come back when I'm finished with the regrouting.

At the Dealer in Banglamung (Thaiyont) there was one in Black in the Showroom about a month ago.

Had a look at it when I brought my new Fortuner for the break-in service (1000km).

It's a nice car and i would prefer it over every Fortuner, but the missus want to have the fortuner and they always get what they want ????

I think the new Dealer in Na Jomtien (Sukhumvit south of Pattaya) will also have one because they have a much bigger and nicer Showroom.

Or just use Android Auto or Apple Carplay...Works fine in my civic.

Impossible with a Toyota factory Satnav.

I think Toyota is the only manufacturer in the world who doesnt have Apple carplay or Android Auto.

It's beyond my understanding why they dont listen to their customers and the biggest Downside of a Toyota Vehicle.

As far as i know Toyota refuses to equip their cars with one of these Systems because they want to use their own System.

Update:

Finaly Toyota jumps on the Android Auto train after years of pushing back on it.

But i think it will take a couple of years until it land in Thailand too.

strange, Lazada was the first place I searched but could only find confectioned cables.

Maybe used wrong keywords or it's a new product.

Thanks @KittenKong

Hi

I'm looking for a box (100m) of shielded (FTP or SFTP) Networkcable.

In all the shops and online stores that i checked they only have UTP cable what doesn't work form my installation.

Would be great if someone point me in the right direction otherwise I have to order it on Aliexpress.

If you want to spend $1000 on a AV only then i would go for the Yamaha RX-A880 (because I'm a yamaha fan).

You can also take the RX-A1070 for a similar price. It's the higher range Model but from 2017.

Similar priced devices from Denon, Marantz, Onkyo or Pioneer are also a good choice.

Do you have a picture of it? And which area of the market he found it?

It's not the style you're looking for but they have many different styles and they can do anything you want on order.

I can't remember where it was but there are 2 or 3 shops almost next to each other.

When you walk trough the market a couple of times I'm sure that sooner or later you will find it.

You can use the same method to build a whole house protection box using higher rated MOVS. Maybe include gas arrestors and spark gaps to make a level one box.

I'm interested into building a whole house box for myself, what kind of MOV's would you recomend?

My house electrics are 3 Phase and i would like to protect all of them (of course ????)

How would this setup look like?

At the Chatuchak Market in Bangkok you can find this style of basin.

My Stepson bougt his there 3 years ago.

I have an EPSON EH-TW9000 lightpower edition and a 250 cm wide 16:9 framed projector screen what i don't use anymore because it doesn't fit in my house.

If you (or somebody else) is interested you can make me an offer.

Numchai has them, big and small ones

Thanks

thanks for your reply @kamalabob2 , I'll check again.

Do you know if there are only this big buckets available or also smaller packs?

I think 3-5 kg should be more than enough for my needs.

Hi

Thanks
