New Swimming pool , Is Salt water the best option?
I have had a little dealing with Bagwain and I think he knows what he's talking about. Also builds pools I think. I live in NE Isaan near Lao so my option was to build my own. I did pay a pool builder from Phuket to advise me by remote control and sourced the pool plans from a company in Limasol Syprus.

Isolator Main Breaker Question
Respectfully I think it's difficult to circuit analyse what a lightning strike will do or where it will travel. I used to work at a TV transmitter on top of a large mountain and we used to get struck regularly many times. If you walked out of the main building your hair would stand up and the air was noisy, Ssssshhhhh, like just about to break down. Most times the strikes would do no damage, then others would damage a piece of equipment, but not the same TX or RX (we had multiple microwave links, base stations and TV transmitters). I was once working on a link when bits of resistors went shooting past my face after a loud strike and bang. Frightened me fartless. Engineers tried to rig up a circuit to count the strikes and it always got to 1 and disintergrated. Lightning strikes do funny things and are unpredictable. Lightning struck near our house a couple of years ago and took out 6 LED fluoro type lights in part of the garage but not the other 4 LEDs.

Me personally, I don't like liner pools.

No not lookin for work ;). Don't mind helping on this forum. I get the farmer across the road to clean it each Sunday. Good man, helps us with heavy work. B350 per week. Add pool salt when the chlorinator yellow light flashes. That's mainly it.

Yes, about 8 years old and cost me, including around pool tiles and half pool shade structure above B800000 but I built it myself with farmers help.

I've got a 14x4 x(1.4 to 2)m Kera tiled salt water pool. Great. Don't slope all the way say 4m flat 4m slope then 4m flat something like that. Waterfall and 2 dolphins in tiles on the bottom with 4 coloured LED lights.

Isolator Main Breaker Question
The only reason I mentioned it is I'm fairly sure a home circuit I saw from Crossy had a MOV on the neutral as well. I'll have a look for the pic. 🙂

Isolator Main Breaker Question
You may never have a problem from lighning strikes, but then one day you do. I think best to install a MOV on the neutral as well. If that's what you mean.

Shouldn't be socialising, should be working. 🙂 Suppose the traffic is just as bad as 15 years ago?

Isolator Main Breaker Question
Muhendis you had me a bit worried then cause mine is the same. What MJCM and I haven't done (one of them roundtuits) is install another MOV (metal oxide varister) on the neutral as well. Me thinks that a near lightning strike will raise the earth and neutral voltage for a poofdeenth of a second as well. I think I remember seeing a Crossy home cct. and his incoming neutral has a MOV as well

Good night
Many ways to say it depending on the context and who you're talking to. I would say: bye, phom ja non.

Electric Vehicles in Thailand
Anyone any idea about when the Sealion 7 would be delivered after ordering during the Motor Show discount? The Mukdahan dealer said last month, but that didn't happen. Is there any way to see where I am on the Far Que? I'm out of country for a few months so that leaves Wifey to handle all the new EV, so if it doesn't come for awhile I think she will cancel and go back and get another Honda CRV.

Yes a great group here. There are many BYD Thai sites and sometimes OK information, but unless you want to practice your Thai skills, the translations to English are a bit hit and miss.

Building a house in Thailand
We went to Bali and bought a container of Teak furniture and sent it back to Thailand, so with a house full of Teak wood furniture, no termites after 8 years. They are in the yard. Our house in Pattaya had wooden door jams and they came up through the cement floor and door jam and ate away when we weren't there. They like quiet.

Building a house in Thailand
Hi. Join the Building in Isaan forum. Just had a post there from a Guy just finished a nice looking house, fence and pool. He used a private builder and recommends them.

PAD. Peripheral artery disease.
Some of the first things you should check are: do you have diabetes and do you have lumbar back troubles. They can also do scans to see if your muscles around your lumbar are dying or been replaced with fatty tissue. Sometimes your nerves die from the feet up.

Stabbing Incident in Pattaya Leaves Japanese Tourist Dead; Suspect Caught
It's not part of their culture. It's not part of any culture. Men are starting to learn it's not their right to dominate females. It's just a relearning process. Give it another 20 years and we'll get there.

Inverter Fan Noise
Instead of having all the solar kit in and on the shed, would be easier the mount the PV panels on the main house tiled roof and place the 3 inverters on the wall of the built-in-varanda. Would they be too noisy?

Is Pattaya Sauna still going? It was just up from the Dolphin roundabout on the way to Na glue on the right hand side.
