I agree 100%. But when that insane acceleration and performance comes without the usual lag on an ICE car and in silence, it takes the thrill to a whole new level.

Salt Chlorinators do fail, either the electronics fail, or the chlorine generating cell wears out. If it's the former, you can replace it with a battery charger, for best results use an adjustable one and reverse the polarity every week. If the cell has worn out, you need to replace it. The electronics is basically a constant current device with auto-reversing polarity. Another tip I would give to buying a salt chlorinator, is go for the one with the biggest output you can afford. you can run the pump less and save a lot of money. One of my neighbours replaced their 25g Cl/Hr for a 50g Cl/Hr and halved their electric bill for the pool from 1,800 to 875 THB/month.

You should never be operating in Winter mode in Thailand, not even in Chiang Rai in the cool season. I have built a few pools here and the tip I would give anyone contemplating it is use granite slabs instead of tiles and there is much less grouting, probably 100 times less. It won't cost any more. Granite lasts a lifetime, it's slightly porous so your concrete mix needs a waterproofer in it (but it should have one anyway). Granite won't craze like tiles do after a decade or so. Don't use marble, it dissolves in low Ph.

I agree, one motor is adequate, enough to leave most ICE cars in the dust. But 2 motors is thrilling and 3 motors is ludicrous, the RImac Nevera has 4 motors one for each wheel and that is perfection, all the stability stuff can be performed independently in electronics, getting that right took them a long time, fortunately they had Richard Hammond (aka Mr. Crash) to test it to destruction for them. Right now the fastest EV in Thailand is the Porsche Taycan Turbo S. I read somewhere that Porsche is working on a Taycan Turbo GT with 3 or 4 motors. 3 motors is predicted, but 4 motors would make sense since they share the same parent company with Rimac who has completed the R&D.

Oodles!

Are you a Holocaust denier too? Earth flat is it? Ivermectin the cure for....well everything?

Per 24 hours

Even on the cloudiest day, I still get about 35 KwHr from my PV

I don't see a data cable between your inverters, required to make them synchronise. Also, is the cable run from each inverter to battery, the same length and size?

The problem with the Nissan Leaf is it's the only BEV car I know of with passive air cooling, consequently, it's unsuitable for hot climates. That is probably why they withdrew it from sale here.

LPG is banned in all condo's here by law.

I have first hand experience, albeit, about 8 years ago. We had a Mitsubishi Pajero converted to LPG to collect customers for an adventure business. When I went to Central Mall the security guard told me I had to park outside with LPG. It's extremely common in Europe, about half the countries ban LPG Parking on lower floors and you can't use the UK-FR Channel Tunnel with an LPG car. The Park2Go app in Thailand often directs you to LPG only spots.

Yes you are right, that time is coming. We can only hope that deployed CS's keep up with EV adoption. I see the opposite problem coming later, increasingly difficult to find fuel for an ICE car.

Most of the shopping malls with indoor parking ban any LPG/CNG parking, I can't see them allowing Hydrogen cars.

If I was to drive to BKK, I wouldn't plan anything, I would just stop at a large service station when battery about 20% and top up. You couldn't do that 2 years ago.

And let's ponder Hydrogen, you make it with electricity, exactly the same electricity EV owners put in their car. There is no difference with Hydrogen. The real issue is transitioning away from fossil fuels, I have done that in my home and with my car.

Between 200-320km

I think what you say is a common misconception. You arrive at the service station, plug your car in, go for a pee, order a coffee or sandwich and by the time you have consumed them, you are on your way again. Maybe 20-30 minutes later. Generally, you waste less time than filling up with Petrol or Diesel, you don't need to hang around during the refuel process whilst the guy spills fuel all over your car.

Where else does it go? Perhaps I convert it to aforementioned pink ouffle dust first? then back again to electricity to put in my car?

I am going to assume that was a rhetorical question.

Or in my case from the 54 solar panels on the roof Aka that magic orangey white thing in the sky

Great, another step, why not convert the electricity to pink ouffle dust first? more steps to avoid putting that electricity straight into your car.

This is nothing new and this is the second repeat of this engine here on this forum. It's a normal petrol engine that has it's fuel delivery changed and optimised for something else inflammable - hydrogen. So you use electricity to generate hydrogen, pressurise it, store it, transport it by road to the filling stations and then put in your noisy car with those 2,000 moving parts and high servicing costs, it makes absolute sense to introduce all these intermediate steps instead of putting the electricity directly into your silent EV car with 20 moving parts and low servicing costs - NOT!

The issue you need to think about is when the internet fails because the power has failed.

Don't you need a server too? The Sonoff device is pinged regularly by their server and that initiates the push message to your phone.
