  1. I went to spray colour a white cable green, but when looking at it there were areas of red, so the manufacturer had painter a red cable insulation white, now I painted it green. Hope the electrons didn't mind. 🙂
  2. Yesterday went to KKU hospital After Hours Clinic and had an appointment with the eye doctor starting at 1630hr. After the usual tests they introduced me to this new looking machine that takes colour pictures of your eye. From that you could clearly see all the bright flecks (floaters) in my right eye. No retina tear. Dr said that over time the floaters tend to fall to the bottom of the eye and not so much of a problem, so booked an appointment in 6 months time to recheck. He said no dangerous problems. Great hospital. Just on the hospital: From Sheryl's advice I visited a specialist there for a colonoscopy last year. No dramas, no problems. So a friend in the same area asked about getting a colonoscopy and I advised him to go to this specialist at KKU After Hours Clinic. He didn't take my advice and went to our local government hospital. I said you could get a perferated bowel if they do it wrong and what could possibly go wrong with a B4000 colonoscopy? After the proceedure he swelled up like a ballon but they sent him home only to be readmitted with a perferated bowel. This is his second week in hospital on major antibiotics. I'll visit him today. It's alway better to follow recommendations than trust yourself to any bush hospital.
  3. Thank you.
  4. I have just been reading the Retina Tear thread and would like to know if KhongKean University Hospital After Hours Clinic Specialist could diagnose a Retina Tear. I am nearly 3 months post back operation that took 9 hours (fusion pelvis to therasic). I had major verdigo after the operation and my eyes seem to have a problem. Specalist did a brain MRI to check that nothing was wrong and the anasethist said I had a very robus system and I didn't miss a beat during the 9 hr surgery. My right eye seems to have lots of floaters and I do get 'flashes' now and again. Everything seems very bright. When I do my daily 5km walk, it's hard to explain, but my vision of the world seems a bit unreal. I think this was coming on before my back operation, but as my back and leg pain/numness etc is 98% better, I notice my vision more I think. So my question is, who to see at KKU hospital? I'm 78 years old. Thank you.
  5. Echo Clear is the crushed plate glass name. There is information about it here.
  6. Crushed plate glass is one filter medium I use for our water supply filter and pool filter. (I forget the manufacturers name.) Before I used large sand and carbon filters, but over time the sand filter becomes less effective as the water tends to 'channel' in the sand. We have a 60m bore and backwash the glass and carbon filters weekly (give or take a month :)) Lots of sediment backwashed from the glass filter but none from the carbon filter, so I would say the glass filter is doing a great job. So maybe investigate 'plate glass as a filter medium'. When I think of its commercial name I will post. 🙂
  7. Not a big area. 😉
  8. It took a while but KSP found it. 🙂
  9. An end of contract present from my Chinese friends (I think).
  10. Thinking of buying this strimmer, because: I already have 20v batteries and charger for other DeWalt devices, After my recent back reorganisatiom, I can no longer use the large Honda strimmer, Looks like a good lightweight machine. Anyone experience with battery strimmers in particular the DeWalt brand? Recommendations?
  11. Use a Kodi box. :)))
  12. Happy ending though. 🙂 I just don't like to throw away anything electrical/mechanical/electronic. Got all these bits waiting for fixing (but will never get around to it). I could get the same electrical spec. motor, but it's the dimensions of all that are a little different to fit the case. If I was in Bangkok I'd visit Baan Mor where they rewind motors on the street corners, or used to.
  13. Well in the bin it goes. Can't even find someone around here that rewinds motors. A lost art.
  14. Has that brown smell and intermittant operation. Took it to my local (Issan) sidewalk Fix Anything Shop and he tried to get a new motor but no success. Said try Bangkok. Bought a Dyson reɛlacement and love it, but like to get the old one going as spare.
  15. I'm having no luck on finding this motor. Samsung VCM-K60EUAA 230V 7.5A 1670W. Searching Lazada and Shopee, there are some similar spec. motors but the dimensions are not exactly the same. Anyone have a shop recommendation please?
  16. You can't drive the starter motor just from the control unit too much current. You have to operate a relay to supply the current. Same for the fuel solonoid. See what the control module book says or a diagram of the control module setup. I can send you a pic of my setup if you're not sure.
  17. We went into Laos by van with a local (Lao/Thai) Monk to a school he supports. From Mukdahan. Went to a cave complex that you boat thru and fairly extensive off main road day trip. As well as a lack of facilities if you have a bike problem, the roads are not really bike friendly, but I guess you know this. So I think the dirt/gravel roads are your problem.
  18. Steve&mem Did you get any external mounted relays with the control unit? Just asking cause you don't show them in your picture. 🙂
  19. I have found that a start delay is needed where I am as the mains power fails, then after a few seconds delay, comes back on again and stays on or goes completely off. So my genset was starting, switching over to genset power, then switching back to mains and closing down. I had to install a time delay relay on start. Should have installed a delay on stop as well.
  20. To get the genset going I think you need: AuxOutput 3 control unit pins 10 and 11. Fuel Solonoid pin 4. Starter Motor pin 5. You need the circuit as Crossy suggested. (I think) is not good enough, must be sure.
  21. I feel the ATS (Automatic Transfer Switch) in a different beast to the Control Module. Still need a control module connected to the internal genset ATS or you have to use the key to start the genset manually first.
  22. Long time dead. 🙂 My control module is similar to yours and I mounted it where the start switch was. Once you install the auto start control module you don't need the start switch. The connections that went to the start switch are now terminated on the module. That black box with the red switch is my control module mounted in the genset.
  23. With my genset control module I had to disconnect the manual key start and wire in the control module. The control module takes place of the manual key start. Not sure if you're getting the control module and ATS connections confused. Sorry if you know all this.
  24. Sequence: you have to get 12 v input to pin 2 for the fuel pump, then to the start relay. All sequences in the controller. But to start all this sequence you first need an earth return to the control unit when the ATS operates. So on the ATS I think you need to connect to 1 and 3 of the circular connector.
