So you will be able to stay for 12 months at a cost of 7,600 baht (4 extensions at 1,900 each) plus the cost of 4 border runs.
or simply, the cost of 6 border runs,
which may work out cheaper depending on location and border used -
look into NiFe batteries
they cost a bit more but should never need replacing so work out cheaper in the long run
they also do not mind being fully charged and fully discharged
(which a 20KW batt would likely be)
my next setup will use NiFe batteries
(currently off grid, 15KW with 60KW SOC)

once in Udon, just get a mini bus to Nong Khai
and cross the border into Laos, have lunch, and come back (you can just skip lunch turn around and straight back)
although if not in a rush, you might as well spend a day or two or more in Laos-

I spend nothing In Thai airports. Check in and straight to the lounge. Duty free has always been a rip off
rip off only when you are looking at the wrong products
a bottle of Dom P is half the price in duty free
many limited edition whiskeys are cheaper and some only available in duty free like JW traveller
it would not surprise me to see very similar duty paid shops open after king power leaves
tourists will not know and may spend regardless-

once they have held your parcel for a few days (don't recall how many)
they may also put a daily storage fee on top
once your parcel has a storage fee applied to it
it may likely not be returned to sender
Tip
Use Amazon when possible and just pay any custom fees when paying for goods
DHL is more convenient than Fedex for paying custom fees, as can be done online sometimes before the parcel lands

Read some of the posts on this board where people are suffering from pool villas being let out as party houses - if they are making noise what they do while at the villa becomes other people's business- I think groups of Chinese renting for parties are much more common that groups of professionals from Bangkok.
so you refuse to answer
tell me what to do
and post your unsubstantiated racist opinion.
i lived next to an airBnB pool villa
mostly it was families with children, usually 2 to 4 families together
so 4-6 adults and a lot of noisy little children enjoying themselves in the pool, which is a pleasure to hear imo
occasionally it was groups of young adults
even the partying young adults did not party all night, most likely as they had jobs to get back too, they would actually stop very early
I never once seen any other nationality apart from Thais stay at that villa.
FYI, Most Chinese come on holiday here in group tours and stay at hotels.
People do not have to be quiet as a mouse just because you want that.
I bet you demanded others wear face diapers too.-

I agree I have sold most of my condos and have a share in a pool villa - rented to Chinese @ 70,000 a month.
Thank you
even long term rental, a pool villa seems a much less riskier choice
Hotels and condo rentals are cheap here-

Yeah right, music blasting out all night - screw the neighbors we're ON HOLIDAY!.
even worse if they blast music in a condo "I'm on me holidays"
pool villas on weekends
are more likely to be rented to families or groups of professional people from BKK
who are likely not on their holidays
what they do while at the villa is their business
and not really what you may assume
Do you blast music all night every night when you are on holiday?-

"trimmed"
so it will grow back
i had a huge tree trimmed in my last property
they cut every branch right back and literally left one small high up branch with some leaves
2 years on the tree looked the same as it did before
have no idea about your property
but there are a good few reasons why trees would have been trimmed
and sometimes it is not up for discussion

condo, i would say NO
too much competition, too many condos for rent cheap
A pool villa, YES
these can fetch very decent prices on weekends especially in easily accessible locations

BTW I am considering something like this.
that looks a rip off
35k for Growatt hybrid 5KW inverter (can get ok inverters from about 15K) = 70k
20 x 550w panels cost = 60k
subtotal 130K
leaves quite a bit of change for labour, fittings and breakers etc.-

I have a spinning disc meter. But 80% is unrealistic without batteries because in the nighttime 3 aircons are running.
i am off grid but same applies
what you can do is run the aircons full blast while the sun is out
and cool the house down as much as possible
this will save you energy once the sun has gone down
the early evening is when most power is used cooling the house down (cooling upstairs down for me)
night time is not so bad once the house is cool
you can also save energy by using aircons and a fan (always check watts fan will use when buying, it varies a lot)
when we have excess sun (rarity this year TBH) i just turn all aircons on
just to get the house as cool as possible so i can save on battery during the night
if you plan for on grid without battery
you can only save what you use during the day
regardless what meter you currently have, you will soon have a digital meter, just a matter of when.
without knowing anything about your use
i would suggest you do plan to add more later if needed
but simply start with a decent 1 x 5KW inverter and panels and see how you go
if you need more juice during daytimes, then add another inverter and more panels

Can anyone explain to me what this is all about ?
They will pay the majority of people the CBDC equivalent of 10k baht to accept the CBDC
then they will tell you what you can and cannot spend your CBDC money on.-

similar happening elsewhere
iirc Belgium has same issue with docks full of Chinese EV's
"Some Chinese brand EVs had been sitting in European ports for up to 18 months"
this all stems from Chinese firms taking investments based on production numbers which is common in China
Although similar stories about Porsche from EV drivers in UK
apparently Porsche are over stocked on an older model, with new model already out
so dealers refusing any part ex EV's
might as well post the title of the British EV owners video
of course his videos started out with him telling everyone every 5 mins that he drives one
but then after a while........he posted this vid 4 months ago
my ELECTRIC CAR is now WORTHLESS EVen the DEALERSHIP doesn’t want it back! EVs are DISPOSABLE JUNK!!-

but they contain footage of areas in Southern California that do not exist anymore, so some history value there
i got no idea what the videos are like
but if they have views that no longer exist
you could also be kind to the internet and create snippets of the lost lands and post them publicly
(obviously snipping out any personal footage should you do not wish to share)-

That damned Microsoft Edge

i use Chris' debloat tool on every windows installation, it is the first thing i do after installing drivers and updates, been using it for years.
your screen is an old though i think, as the O&O shutup now has a button and you can select what you want O&O to disable, not just the recommended settings
