That is a myth propagated by men with small tools.

my imaginary friend is better than yours

I take Ivermectin once a year, and so do my daughters. Liver flukes and other parasites are silent killers, a once a year dose is perfectly safe and efficacious in killing any parasites you might have before they do real damage. I also take Ivermectin when other members of my household contract covid, is it the reason I didn't catch it? probably not it, but it doesn't do any harm and any possible slight elevation in protection is better than nothing. Before you say it, yes I know about all the studies that say it's ineffective in prophylaxis & treatment of covid.

One more tip. We used to always fit Mitsubishi air cons, then we tried Daikin, Carrier and now fit TCL if wall mount split and Fujitsu heat pump cassettes in living rooms. Most inverter air cons nowadays are pretty good and silent, the no.1 air con seller on lazada is TCL, we have fitted dozens and no failures. We buy Lazada and get a local guy to fit. There's no point paying high prices for air cons today, although it was different 10 years ago. Surprisingly the worst air cons we have ever fitted were Daikin Smile inverter air cons, they have the worst sealing of logic boards for ghecko's and the lowest TiO2 content in the plastics leading to yellowing, even worse, the vanes yellow at a different rate. I think we have replaced something around 5 or 6 logic boards in Daikin and had to replace one whole system because the power-board blew and a new TCL was cheaper than repairing it. Target price for TCL air cons around 7,500 for 9,000 BTU and 13,000 BTU for 18,000 BTU. We don't fit 24,000 BTU wall mounted units made by anyone because they are typically 18,000 BTU units running faster and noisier. If using split systems in large rooms we prefer to fit multiple units, it's quieter and gives more consistent cooling.

Here are some of the techniques we use building high end housing estates from scratch, you might like to consider some. We use 8cm lightweight aerated concrete blocks on outside walls and conventional heavy blocks on inside walls. We are aiming for high thermal mass inside with outside skin insulating the internal. The other issue with lightweight blocks internally is longevity, hanging pictures, curtains etc is more difficult and over time they work loose. Some of the things we do are no visible columns or beams, even on staircases, 3.2m ceilings on ground floor too, rooves are designed for solar panels, silent air conditioning (heat pumps in living rooms as Chiang Rai gets cold), sealed downlighters (no flies/mozzies), CAT6 cabling, IoT switches, a plant room, all utilities underground, concrete roads (tarmac doesn't last and if the developer chose tarmac it's a clue they cut corners), CAD house design & geolocation sun modeling by month to cut infra red transfer especially afternoon sun. No two houses alike. We design the sofas and have them made. Our designs consider furniture placement too, for example even in spare rooms the wall behind a bed should be a minimum of 3.6m to allow king size bed and two 60cm bedside tables, in one house we designed in and fitted an elevator. People buy after viewing showhouses, they are buying dreams and lifestyle with their heart not their head, the same way a lot of people buy cars, it's much harder to sell an empty house.

This V2L adaptor will give you 16amps, or 3.5Kw. If the Seal is anything like the MG4, the car won't trip until drawing over 6Kw. The limitation on the one's manufacturers supply is both the cable and the power handling capability of the socket arrangement, the adaptor shown is rated at 16amps.

My friends forgot to pay their PEA bill whilst overseas on holiday, they came to disconnect the meter and probably saw it spinning in reverse. Now they want to make an appointment to change it for a digital one. My neighbour has just installed an expensive Hybrid solar system and told PEA, I suspect they will change his meter for digital too.

I have seen a youtube where a guy takes the temperature of all the cars in the sun (I think it's posted here somewhere), the white was a lot cooler.

I think you can wrap the badge on the front in any colour you want, even transparent colour, chromes

Presumably they are going to build solar farms to do that, in my opinion, they would be better something that Solar into the grid instead of burning coal. The problem with green hydrogen is, it’s only about 20% efficient by the time it’s in your car, Compared with the original electricity City used to make it, So it’s always going to be a lot more expensive than a BEV, unless it’s subsidised to a massive degree

All the back badges are coming off the back on mine, then I will put just one badge, the black 3.8s or maybe the black AWD

I made the mistake of ordering a Yamaha Clavinova, paying through my debit card. They had no stock so cancelled my order, it took about a month to get over 100k THB back. I never order anything expensive without checking the supplier has stock.

There is something different about diesel vehicles in Thailand. I smell them immediately I am behind one. That doesn't happen in the UK. Maybe they don't have catalytic converters here or DPFs, but there's definitely something very different. I think a lot of the poor air quality is down to diesel engines.

I'm not sure I agree, I think there are 2 kinds of expensive wristwatch wearers, those who keep it for best and wear it on special occasions and those who put it on every day and forget it. I got my first Rolex (Datejust Oyster, Champagne Dial, Bimetal Jubilee Strap) when I was 30 and whilst it felt special then, it became ordinary, the only time it ever came off my wrist was to be serviced, it felt special (in a bad way) when I had to pay the bill for service every few years. It was usually filthy in the clasp by servicing time, I never cleaned it. Someone once said to me that if you get mugged in Thailand they won't take your watch because they don't know what they are worth and if they do they will think it's fake. I sold it this year because the service was 50,000 baht with new parts and they said they couldn't polish the bracelet next time as it was worn too much and wanted over 100,000 baht to replace it, I declined. Some watches can be a great investment, I wanted particular watch a couple of years ago and had to buy a cheaper model first to join the queue. The watch I ultimately got is worth 3 times what I paid for it, and again, I wear it 24/7, showering, swimming etc. It's a vastly overpriced watch considering it's just steel but a great investment. There's no ego involved in wearing a good watch, it's simply put it on and forget.

Now you've had the SinJet mirror awhile, how are you finding it to live with? nighttime etc?

It could have been a ploy given by the manager to the salesman to get me to take a car this year. I was in 2 minds whether to wrap it anyway, I love the frozenberry colour. I paid a deposit, it lists what I get free etc, interestingly it says delivery date 18th January 2024, which is exactly 3 months from order date, the salesman told me 30-45 days delivery for Space Grey Performance. Another salesguy in Chiang Mai told me 3 months, so he was probably better informed. I test drove 19th October, I drove half the journey, my brother in-law from Australia drove the other half. When we got back to the dealership, I ordered mine and he ordered his Blue Premium online in Australia whilst in the showroom here. At the time, the Seal was just being launched, he got his car last Friday. @Mr MeeseeksWhich colour did you choose?

50k THB for a polo shirt would stick in my craw!

That sucks!

The salesman called me to say my Space Grey Seal Performance will not come till next year and price may go up 50k THB, he's not sure on the price increase yet. He can get me white or black performance now, so I told him to get me the white one and I will wrap it Porsche FrozenBerry. I should have it later this week.

Here's a suggestion to use your TOU meter for your whole house on the cheap rate, but only if they are both on the same phase and that can't be changed without you knowing and you have a WiFi signal where you bring them together in your house. Program ... the TOU breaker to connect at time TOU cheap rate starts the NORMAL RATE breaker to disconnect 1 minute after the TOU cheap rate starts the NORMAL RATE breaker to connect at the time TOU cheap rate finishes the TOU breaker to disconnect 1 minute after time TOU cheap rate finishes There will be no momentary loss of power causing any glitches. The WiFi breakers below are just some of the many TUYA ones available, some cheaper, some more expensive.

Why have 1 when you can have 3? I have a 16amp charger, and a switchable 32amp, 24amp, 16amp, 10amp charger. I also have a granny charger that looks identical to the switchable one on the wall but on a 16amp plug, it's switchable 6amp, 10amp, 13amp and 16amp it also has a 10 meter long cable, we've only used it once when my daughter stayed overnight at a motel in Phayao.

So, contrary to what you were saying, this will make EV insurance cheaper and you can look at it as full cover for the battery at price X or diminishing cover for the battery at cheaper price Y. It will be interesting to see if they remove the "any driver" option. Tesla once demonstrated the automated battery swap on a Model S. The car drove onto the machine, the machine removed and swapped the battery pack and the car drove off. Like most of Musk's promises, they either never happen or happen years later. Customers in the UK are suing Tesla for refunds on their $8,000 payment for Full Self Driving on cars they bought 4 years ago and it still hasn't been delivered. One customer refused to sign the gagging clause and won his case, the floodgates are now open. This video is worse than clickbait, it has nothing to do with Toyota. There is no such thing as a water engine and never will be. It's a scientific impossibility.

So it’s not confirmed yet

And if you are renting the battery then it would be insured by NIO I would expect.

Swapping batteries makes a lot of sense for long distance travelers. However, I wouldn't want to rent a battery, I don't like recurring payments, usually a ruse to increase profitability.
