just shy of 100,000 baht for nearly a 10 kWh hybrid system

that sounds a bit of a bizarre statement to me! ????

ie you've actually quoted 4700watts worth of panels BUT the total kWh depends on the amount of sunshine during the day, shirley?

i thought it rained quite a lot in Thailand? These garden tanks are quite common in France and the mains pressure is high

Are you folks not tempted to bin the mains water if it's such a PITA? And for the shower use a roof tank that gets heated by the sun?

This post is certainly a field day for the old barstool farts. 'What, young people living in Thailand, and working too'! No masks! Bang 'em up and throw away the key!  You can hear the bitterness drip from every one of their posts....????

 

aye, they're never critical of the one percenters or icons like the queen, quel surprise....

too much TV, fat pensions, fat backsides and not enough critical thinking = clown world ????

Super spreader event. Worse than Wembley, Wimbledon or Silverstone. Btw, the nutter in the middle needs a haircut.

heard you the first time dude, shame nobody is watching or listening to what the 'one percenters' do though, eh? ????

Arrogance and Selfishness is a Virus as bad if not worse !! Then Covid !! 

so does that apply to the Queen of the UK, the prime minister of the UK and The President of the European Commission amongst other 'rich and powerful cnuts'? Or does it just apply to a bunch of 'free hippies'?

If you don't want to get vaccinated and take your chances I guess that is OK.

I don't want to take my chances with ADE but it appears many do lol I'll take my chances with my immune system and leave clown world to the others ????

Cooked food is the thing that permitted the humans to develop beyond nomadic Hunter gatherers, so producing virtually everything that you live on

probably but then 'processed food' turned most westerners into oversized id10ts who believe any old propaganda the media and the state decide to spew out....

And sadly doctors don't appear to under 'diets' anymore ????

Don't waste time cooking. Heat destroys enzymes, without that your body will digest about 40-50% of the food. Rest goes to waste.

interesting, so you live purely on a diet of fruit and veg? no rice!?

Steel frame clad in Shera board with gypsum inner lining

that's a really interesting looking build, can I be nosey and ask how much to put up the metal frame?

I see some of the boards at ground level have absorbed some water but do they dry out quickly? never heard of shera board before

cheers

That said, 3kWh/day is impressive!  Just our internet and TV use more than that… 

you must have a really inefficient TV!

I run a fully blown AMD Radeon PC but powered by a laptop psu and an efficient DC-DC power converter, that runs circa 30watts so for 10 hours that's still only 300wh

A router, what 8watts? I also run PIs and an Odroid box and do occasionally watch the propaganda on a large TV ????

That is my electric utility. I am net-metered, so when it is negative I have a credit for the day. Load was much higher in that graph than normal, ran an air conditioner all day and charged the car. (5kW off the laundry sub-panel) PV output was down in the afternoon due to cloud cover as well. 

cheers, you've got some crazy high numbers there for someone who is used to consuming circa 3kwh a day lol

are leccy cars taking off in Thailand?

several nice consumption graphs.

what's the Heco that takes lots of power? and the 'Laundry' too?

not  needed  but  i wanted  the door  frames  set  in the  middle  of  the  walls with  no architraves.

got any pics how you did that? cheers

Make one yourself with a raspberry pi.......there is some software called 'home assistant' so if you stick a bluetooth module on your pi or other puter you can also talk to bluetooth temp monitors around your place and those only cost like 10 bucks for 4 from aliexpress

@Rampant Rabbitare those Qcon blocks just like aircrete blocks? Are they cheap now?

I’m just wondering what type of house could I build for 2 million baht ?

methinks that should get you something pretty amazing in the current climate

Same old story, who you know rather than what you know.....i think I read that a truck full of cement is like 10 bucks lol (that can't be right surely but cheapo nevertheless)

If you speak the lingo and you know some 'local workers' who can dig holes, bend metal, pour concrete, build walls, you'll get away with an incredibly cheap build

Good luck then.., you don’t need a rabies vaccination if bitten by a dog, you won’t need a tetanus vaccine if cut by a dirty object, you never needed a measles vaccine… etc…

I acknowledge some 'proper vaccines' are useful.....this new stuff is not a 'vaccine' in the traditional sense! Latest NHS figures show that 35% of hospitalized have had 2 vaccines! It doesn't work! OOh yeah but just think how ill you would have been 'without the vaccine', what BS!

Talking of stupidity, Einstein said 'stupidity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results!'

Enjoy your 12th vaccine and still not being protected from a coronavirus that mutates all the time! Just like flu! DURRRR!!! ????
