    It's nearly 400bht a month for a TOU meter, that's more than my existing monthly PEA bill (around 300bht). Battery charges from the solar cells, sure, in extended periods of bad weather the battery grabs some from the grid, and with all the rain my system may have needed 5 units this month ........ 20bht (ish).

    What delay would you imagine there is and why would it affect anything? They all switch seamlessly between power sources. You can't connect additional inverters after the first 6-12 months as the inverter models change every year, and never work with previous models. Future proofing is an imaginary concept, there is no such thing. Even the solar panels have completely changed in the past 5 years.

    https://s.lazada.co.th/s.qSIIq 51k, 55k if you want a nicer white box. Not sure why you'd want comms between box and inverter. There's no practical reason for that. Not sure why you'd want an expensive Deye inverter either. I paid 12k for my mrpower 5k5w inverter and it works perfectly. All the bells and whistles are ignored after you've been running it a month.

    I want to say "play American beauty in DS video" etc., shouldn't be hard, but it is. I can tell DS video to play/ pause but that's about it.

    For some reason they only play Netflix! I'm thinking Netflix paid them not to recognise any other video sources. Don't really monitor energy usage as it's mostly solar power. Cooker, Aircon, showers still on grid around 300bht/month.

    I have most of my home under Google home , but mainly use Xiaomi smart speakers in place of the Google mini nests. Better than the mini nests and a fraction of the price (900bht). Used to control my TCL android TV, aircon, most of my light switches and some sockets (TUYA). Wish they didn't keep disappearing from Lazada.

    No fighting on my part, I just lay there in bed while they injected me with morphine. No operations, no medication other than pain relief, no treatment beyond bandages.

    Diagnosed by whom? 2nd rate Thai doctor, western doctor paid to push big pharma products. Why does nobody have the courage to say NO!

    Deye 3 phase inverter = 90,000bht 48v 280ah battery = 50,000bht Longi 580W =3200bht x20 = 64,000bht So thats 20kbht for parts, installation another 20kbht seems a bit expensive.

    I had a 5000bht order for quite a heavy item COD. When it arrived it was just an envelope ......... delivery refused.

    How could anyone know what a woman thinks? Back to OP, Been married to mine 15 years now, I've become attached and I'm too old to change.

    7% on a $6000 ebike would be $500, more than I'd want to give away in tax.

    10,000bht a month!

    Thought there was a war going on in the Ukraine? Didn't see much fighting in the OP video, or is the war fake news?

    Adult nappies, plenty of choice in Makro.

    Same, most of my male rellys were dead by now.

    I'd have been happy to die like that at age 52, sadly I've currently managed 68 with no end in sight. Despite this breakfast almost every day ...........

    Beautiful birds, we get them on the village green in our moobaan, cycled past one this morning.

    If you exercise enough, you can eat whatever you like with no apparent downside. My 25km/day cycle rides (with PA) seem to make it impossible for me to gain any weight. When I was a little younger (62) and trail running most days, I needed a Big Mac every day and was still losing weight, had to force myself to eat when I wasn't hungry.

    Don't think I've ever paid more than 1kbht/night in Asia (normally less), the rooms all had air-con, en-suite shower, sometimes a swimming pool, and sometimes breakfast.

    Exercise more, eat less, forget the pills.

    They're either your employee or your owner. Or maybe in the west you're their indentured servant. Your passion is irrelevant to them.

    If I'm not sick I don't take medication.

    Every shop in Thailand, expensive in 7-11, but cheaper in Tops (2 for1), and on Lazada (free delivery in app). 83bht for 250gm packet. https://s.lazada.co.th/s.q4cV9 Note: Only the Honey Almond is sugar free (I guess the honey replaces sugar).
