They are ridiculous. I just went off grid months ago. They can come to collect the meter anytime.

When batteries are depletd and ther's not enough production or for some reason the demand exceed the production + batteries availability the inverter goes off and switcher automatically turn into grid, and when inverter provide again energy it will switch back autmatically? There's a point here. Is not possible that it starts to loop like that: switch to grid because the load is too high, inverter recover a normal state because there's not load connected anymore, switch to inverter, but the load is too high, so inverter cut off again and switcher switch to grid and so on again and again in loop?

@lom on deye you moved al the house to the backup port because as I understood that's the only way to run deye offgrid, do you confirm?

I have ordered the automatic switch. I will install it in a few days and set the inverter offgrid, so any ghost export is impossible since I won't be anymore grid tied.

Good. We have cctv and I said to my wife to never open to them if they ring the bell. If they see her outside the gate and ask I told to her to tell that the owner is not here. I think they should send a notice by post for this kind of things or at least leave something on the postbox. Untill I have something in writing I will ignore them.

@lom can you share a photo of the automatic switch?

@Crossy They wanted to do, but they didn't show any documents or identification even to confirm that they were really PEA inspectors, only violet shirts... They could be fraudster who knows. I told to them that before to let them get inside my property I want to receive by post a written notice from PEA with the reason of inspection and in that case I will go to PEA office to take an appointment for the inspection. They obviously were not happy, they took a photo of my door and went away. I have an approved inverter. I don't export. Anyone else facing same issue?

I don't feed the grid since I have a lot of batteries. I'm just grid tied and I use energy from the grid occasionally when for some reason (for instance, cloudy) batteries are not charged enough during the day. PEA came to my house requesting to register the solar system otherwise they will disconnect the meter. I choosed to invest on hybrid with batteries instead of feed the grid in order to avoid the headache of PEA and now here we are. I heard about some neighbours on the same situation. I'm in Bang Sarae. My meter is already digital. what's happening?

Never happened to me. Maybe once because my hands were full

It happened to me as well. I called the Embassy they told me the hospital couldn't hold me. They had to let me go making me sign a declaration that I would have paid the bill as soon as possible, otherwise the embassy would had force the hospital to discharge me. At the end the insurance paid but I had to do in a second stage a second operation for the cost of 36k euro and I had to pay in advance from my pocket. In the accident the police said the fault was 50% me and the Thai car. That's my experience. From that day since basically I lost forever my hip joint that has been replaced by a prosthesis, i bought a 2.7 ton suv and I use motorbike just for go at 7 back to my house, I also pay a first class insurance and a premium one for health coverage.

I had only one time in Prachinburi a problem. They insisted I had exceeded the speed limit but it wasn't true. They wanted something like 600 cash. Told them: Please, give me the fine ticket I will pay later at the police station. During a long negotiation the amount low down to 400, 300 200 and at the end they told me "please just the money for a coffee". They literally used the word "please" It was ridiculous. They requested me to get off the car and "speak with their boss". I got off, closed safety the car, and repeated the same process to the boss. Politely and quietly but firmly. And they let me go. Lost 20 minutes. From that day when I cross Prachinburi motorway I use the cruise control at 58km/h and I always record with the phone speed and road. Furthermore I have in the blue book a letter written from my lawyer explaining that I can record everything with the phone and if I break some law they have to issue official ticket and my lawyer will pay for me in the appropriate manner. I never had the opportunity to use it. (I hope it will never happen off course).

My M-Pass stopped working about 4 months ago. I went to the Bank branch, they said they does not provide m-pass devices anymore. I went on Chachoengsao service area for replacement, I've been told device it's not available for replacement. I then called the 1586 number and they confirmed me that m-pass is not available for new issues or replacements at all anywhere in Thailand. There is no way to get it. Anyone has some info about it? I still have some money topped up inside and I would like to understand if there is any chance to have a replacement or not. I am already m-flow registered, but it's not working on motorway number 7

True. In 17 years of Thailand the only few times that someone bothered me, was a farang. With Thai people in general I never had big problems. That's my 17 years experience.
