I think I read somewhere that the government do want the populous to embrace solar power. As usual, they just mire the whole thing up in red tape, which encourages fraud and illegal activity, so that it becomes difficult to comply. I should imagine it’s very difficult for an installer to get approved without greasing palms, hence the ridiculous price quoted by approved suppliers. If your inverter is approved, I can’t see how you could connect it in such a way that it would damage the PEA system or shock the lineman working on the cables in a power cut.

Export and import could be the other way round

One is Export (to PEA I guess), the other is Import, that meter has the ability to pay you for your export, IF you had approval

MG also advertise that their battery packs are replaceable by module. I think that is a fairly smart marketing idea.

I think you need to check your meter when you know you are exporting to the grid whether or not PEA are charging you to export, hopefully not.

MG DC chargers are another well known brand, I can’t remember which, but with an MG iSmart account I was able to fast charge my non-MG car.

Thanks for that, I thought it was odd

Here's another from NIH Ivermectin Prophylaxis Used for COVID-19: A Citywide, Prospective, Observational Study of 223,128 Subjects Using Propensity Score Matching - PubMed (nih.gov) Conclusion: In this large PSM study, regular use of ivermectin as a prophylactic agent was associated with significantly reduced COVID-19 infection, hospitalization, and mortality rates.

I think it's fairly conclusive that Ivermectin is ineffective at treating Covid, but what about as a pre-exposure prophylaxis? Have there been any trials of that?

I got an MG4 three weeks ago, it's a great car.

Electriciry & salt Water, what could possibly go wrong.

Does one of your neighbours have grid-tied solar power? If they have check the voltage at the time it trips, maybe it's too high in which case you would need the next breaker size up.

Ivermectin cured my Covid and my amputated leg grew back. On a serious note, if the people in Isaan took it occasionally, it would probably kill the liver flukes they catch from eating raw marinated meat/fish etc that eventually lead to Liver Cancer.

I have no reason to doubt his post is legit, do you? It's not always practical to track deliveries especially in a large household with multiple buyers. We agree on bearing responsibility for one's actions, I have never heard of a successful scam where lazada are holding the funds but have referenced one where a courier is holding the funds. Why take the risk if there is a risk free way ? I think you mistook intelligence for arrogance, why does that not surprise me.

There is a well known scam where luxury grey importers target HiSo Thais & Thai students studying in the UK, they give them the deposit for Hire Purchase and then the gang steal the vehicles, importing them to Thailand. Meanwhile the student claims off the insurance policy and makes a bit of pocket money for his help.

Lithium Iron Phosphate( LFP or LiFePo4) is the best chemistry for Thailand, twice the charging cycles as NMC and tolerates hot temperatures better without premature degradation. NMC is more energy dense.

Always buy through the official channel, many of the grey imports are stolen from the UK.

Unfortunately, not everyone has been as lucky as you, which you'd know if you read the full thread.

Not an MG, I have another car with two extra modes, Sport Plus and configurable for power, suspension & lots of other bits. Sports Plus pre-heats or cools the battery for optimum power/charging, makes the gearbox use the lower gear on partial throttle opening etc. The GPS also pre-conditions the batter if you program a CS as the destination/way-point.

You might find there is a setting to pre-condition the battery for charging, on my car selecting "Sport Plus" does that.

Did you read this post? This scam can only work with COD, I have sent back lots of items, Lazada always resolves it successfully because they are holding the money, we don't use COD, we don't need to track the package, there are 4 people in this household we all use Lazada, COD would be frought with issues checking who has ordered what and when it's due to arrive. I can't think of a scam that works with non COD, perhaps you can? I have checked, I don't seem to be missing anything, what are you missing?

I have tried 2 EA chargers, one in Chiang MaI and the other at Robinsons, Kampgaeng Phet, neither would work. Fortunately the slow AC charger next to the EA one in Robinson's would work and @FarangRimPing was on hand to whisk me off on a tour of temples for a couple of hours.

Even that isn't safe, if the seller ships two packages, a fake one first and another real Lazada package filled with a toilet roll on the morning he expects the fake to be delivered. The only safe way is non COD.

Nobody is saying all COD is a scam, just that the risks are higher because it's not Lazada who are holding your money, it's a courier and some of them release it immediately you sign POD. You are right in saying that Lazada do provide the tools to check that the parcel was shipped through lazada but how many of us check the lazada app when the courier is at the door? I can't realistically expect my maid to call me and get me to check the app because she is stood in front of a courier and if I am out dining with my friends I don't want the intrusion. I prefer Lazada to hold my money, I have returned around a dozen items and have never been let down by them, from fake good to poor quality or broken merchandise. I am a seller on Lazada and I can tell you that I have no choice in the courier, Lazada allocate a courier and ask me to print a shipping label already filled out with seller, buyer, courier's house waybill number etc and take it to that courier. Sometimes there is no choice but to use Lazada or Shopee, we had a toilet seat break and none of the DIY stores here carried Bathline any more and the only place I could get it was online. Lazada was the only place I could buy a Christmas pudding and sage & onion stuffing for Christmas Day, 2 dozen LED lightbulbs delivered yesterday at a third of the price they are in the shops here. I don't have to worry about trying to bully a courier into breaking his company's rules and letting me open the goods first and rest safe letting my maid sign for goods knowing that Lazada won't pay the merchant for a few days giving me time to request a return. For those of us with teenagers, did they order COD? good luck calling them to ask if they ordered it and to check it was shipped on Lazada, it's hard enough getting them to answer their phones! I have an implied contract with Lazada who care about their reputation, I have no contract whatsoever with a courier. COD carries risks that just aren't there with non COD.

You really didn't read my post did you? I explained it was another forum member who was scammed this way, his name is LALes and this is the post
