  1. The answer might be in the difference between vented and unvented tankless heaters explained by @Crossy in the thread below.
  2. The recent Wiki article has detail about Taleb al Abdulmohsen past in the suspect paragraphs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2024_Magdeburg_car_attack
  3. Family in Chanthaburi use high pressure spray pumps which is where I picked up the info. The oil you show should be fine for your pump.
  4. The 4T oil is for the 4 stroke engine. If the automatic transmission fluid is for the pump then it is incorrect. Use SAE40 pump oil. The piston lubrication cups require grease.
  5. If you provide the pump with enough direct solar panel power the pump should run but its a terrible method. Solar well pumps operate best when there is a power point tracking controller in between pump and panels. The video below might explain why you are having problems with your pump directly connected to a solar panel.
  6. Thailand has many written standards that are rarely followed. Example TIS 11-2553
  7. On that note, its would be a good idea for the OP to check all existing surge devices have the essential solid ground connection.
  8. Here is link to Thai 3M Filtrete website showing split air products. https://filtrete.3m.co.th/3M/th_TH/filtrete-th/products/air-conditioner-cleaning-filter
  9. Not my pump, best to aim concerns about pump size at @djayz
  10. Below is detail for generic Chinese solar pump controllers with 1500W highlighted. I would go on the high side of recommended solar power of ≥ 1.3*Pump power
  11. Insisting they install a ground wire was a wise move but its likely the surge that wiped out your AC was too large for its protection to capture. As mentioned by @Crossy, surge protection at the CU adds another layer capable of handling larger surge currents. Local isolation at each AC is another method to reduce risk. This allows two pole disconnection from the power line when AC is not in use for long periods.
  12. Lightning is a varying electric current and does exactly what we expect from varying electric currents, it produces EM waves. These waves can be detected many kilometres from the source. Inverter type air conditioners that are not correctly grounded will be more susceptible to damage from spikes on the supply line. Its quite common for Thai installers to not ground outdoor units which later gets picked up during warranty claims.
  13. Apparently, Tommy Robinson has become a best selling author. https://www.amazon.co.uk/Manifesto-Tommy-Robinsons
  14. For those living in and around Pattaya, a claim that yellow books are sometimes useless might carry a little weight. I agree with the usefulness of a yellow book but it must be quite disappointing for someone who went through the application process only to find their local DLT does not accept yellow books as proof of residence. I know of two fairly recent cases where the yellow book was not accepted when renewing a driving licence at Chon Buri DLT. Reason given by this office for rejecting yellow books is that people move address without updating the yellow book whereas in most cases immigration carries up to date address information. For those who wish to question this, a call to the Pattaya Chon Buri office will provide the latest ruling on yellow books and pink cards.
  15. For an official Jinko panel distributer where you can pay then collect and inspect the goods :- JTN ENERGY CO LTD
  16. Is a little over priced considering brackets power supply and trunking are already installed. Removal of the old AC is easy, gas recovery into the outdoor unit takes leas than a minute. Note. As scrap, a fully copper AC will place up to 1600-1800 Baht in your installers pocket, aluminium about 700-900 Baht. The best way to test your AC's in the same room is let each come up to set point then monitor cost to hold temperature over time. Important to measure room temperature with separate device because accuracy of AC's setting varies between brand.
  17. Curb your enthusiasm and the frustration will greatly reduce. Yes, Plex or Kodi are solutions if LG smart share is not an option.
  18. Download and install LG smart share on your PC. Information can be found on the LG website. Then place media files in the LG share folder on the PC and away you go.
  19. The ten dichotomous questions from said survey are listed below, 1 and 7 received the most desirable response. UK ECIU SURVEY 1. The total upfront costs for an EV are higher than a petrol car 2. The total lifetime CO2 emissions of an EV (from building, driving and scrapping) are no less than those of a petrol car 3. More natural resources are extracted from the earth to build and fuel an EV than are extracted to build and fuel a petrol car 4. EVs pose a threat to the structural integrity of the UK’s car parks 5. EVs are more likely to catch fire than petrol cars 6. EVs are no better for urban air quality than petrol cars 7. The UK is not on course to install the charging infrastructure it will need to make the transition to EVs 8. EV drivers currently pay more for their insurance than petrol car drivers 9. The UK’s grid will not be able to cope with the extra demand that will be created by the UK’s shift to EVs 10. Switching to EV’s will weaken the UK’s energy independence
