  1. You are talking single point to provide RO water or some kind of change to entire system? For the single point (which does not cost that much) of most concern is that you make enough and do not have to wait too long to make more.
  2. Just under 1k. And indeed there are fakes for sale - real model has flat bottom - fakes I noticed few years ago had few plastic tab keeping bottom off table if not hung. As for not working - these work very well indeed (and I was a skeptic). This appears to be real unit. https://www.lazada.co.th/products/portoti-pr-25mb-mosquito-pest-killer-led-ver2-led-i174536187-s358395528.html? Edit - checked and bought from above company at 899 Baht in December 2020.
  3. And you want to further poison the air? Can you perhaps get village to do the deed on a one time basis? Once population reset they do not seem to increase quickly. Here in Bangkok used below units and within few days almost none and units easily keep them under control for last few years. The good thing is they seem to only attract mosquitos. Not cheap but nothing to run out and easy to clean. PORTOTI Mosquito Killer PR-25MB
  4. In my opinion the MY LIST available previously was a major factor for making and placing orders - it has not been returned to more than a shadow of before (handful of products with no easy update).
  5. Lotuss is valid alternative with a lot more items for sale - but they do not have a list area or easy mark for next time order (but search seems good). They now seem to have much better stock control than when Tesco however and offer a 3 hour delivery service which is often free.
  6. Most people do not need towers anymore so even a breakfast table could be cut down to fit or a flat table bought with enough room. But perhaps have shophouse build to your specs if you can afford a reasonable priced solid wood unit? They also have metal move around tables that a lot of people could use with adjustable height. I use a normal wood table about 76cm high myself, with my arm resting on table from office chair so your 10cm or more lower seems very low indeed. 120x80cm table has plenty of room for 32" monitor/mini computer/printer/scanner/full size video security recorder and power outlets/ keyboard/mouse/ssd external/usb adaptor. Could still find space for tower if needed. Sit at angle so under table fully usable for trash/storage/drawers.
  7. Not sure what an "mts" is but in most cases shorter legs can easily be obtained with a saw if you find something you like.
  8. The UK does not have pay on death options for bank accounts? AFAIK they do not require a will.
  9. In many years of using have never been asked to pay more than listed on Lazada shipments. Ali Express is a different platform. There have been special FTA rules for China and others however and bulk payment systems, but this may be subject to change as government has directed that everything must be subject to 7% tax (elephant pants protest) reaction.
  10. I have two of the same model you have - both read about the same - and both about 50 or more lower at home rather than when in hospital. Just take with you to hospital to check - White Coat can be extreme for some of us. Covid isolation/fears has made it worse IMHO.
  11. As said it is probably best to arrange plan now to be sure you get what you want (low price). Wife is likely to be pressed to spend more and be made to feel she is not providing a proper send off for her loved one if she has to take care of arrangements after your death. Embassies do have lists available for those providing such service and you have several recommendations already for a service that others have used and had good experience with.
  12. That is welcome news - my last report was rejected with no reason so hope there is a silver lining at some point and might explain CW telling user to fill 15 days early next time. It used to be notice was sent before they even accepted form so had to wait.
  13. For anyone using CW.Bangkok it sure does. Your next due date will be 90 days from approval date.
  14. Quakes and typhoons are normally not an issue in the Duma area and you have both the sea and elevations easily available. Duma has a number of expats due to low costs and good living conditions with easy travel but there is room to avoid if that is your desire. But also good shopping and medical facilities when wanted or needed. Even with issues of truck smoke PI has enough natural air flow to keep things clean in most areas. But no hurry to make a final decision on final resting place as you can move your things and easily move elsewhere later if you change your mind, for find someone to change our mind.
  15. It that valid to a US post office box? That seems to be the issue for many as only official government mail service seems to be accepted as final path.
  16. I do not remember the name exactly but it had tracking and cost was about 580 baht for about 30 A4 insurance pages.
  17. We were advised in March that EMS will not send to US PO box address anymore due to non delivery/late delivery issues (as of sometime last year). Alternative was a Thailand Post option (almost as expensive). But expect IRS has heavy workload currently and that all will be OK with time.
  18. Actually they (and most things) can be much lower price without OEM front plate and fully understand the quality might be a bit less - but for my use want odor removal which requires short lift carbon type filters and these fit my needs at a reasonable cost and work very well for home use. If I was running an operating room would have more concern with 99.5 or 99.9 type figures but for use in home these are secondary to having full time breathable air. Howard Hughes - I am not.
  19. Should not be any issue - you are just adding a new payee account - but if using for immigration extensions make sure foreign origin of money will not become an issue for you.
  20. Believe starts that way and some prefer to do it that way but believe some still get longer time if they request. At any rate still seems to be a simple procedure.
  21. It is a month or two at first and 3 or 6 months at a time I believe - up to a total of 3 years. Believe it for any tourist visa entry but have not checked if for Thai. You or agent will have to visit immigration each time but simple fill out form/pay and go. So if on island without immigration perhaps agent would be useful.
  22. Have seen much longer times mentioned (perhaps because of no idea how - but as you say also up to the speed of the court).
  23. Actually not when it is in your name only. Thailand does not provide pay on death and will have to go through normal court process from my understanding.
  24. Just a caution that money must be in account at required level for required time each year. You say 800k in account which would be for retirement extension requirement but that you will be extending for 400k marriage. Be sure you have the 400k in account for 2 months before next application for extension of stay (moving funds can be an issue at times - you are aware that for marriage you only require the 400k in bank for about 3 months each year)?
