what is missing above door? rain guard question
almost there . "door rain deflector" yielding better results. wish something like that was metal, in my experience if you don't screw something in place it is just temporary soluton

what is missing above door? rain guard question
when it rains sideways water comes inside the house. there is huge gap above the door to compensate for opening mechanism arm. i remember installer telling me he will come back because he is missing some piece but he never did. (contact lost)) there must be something that looks right and functions right like black L-shaped piece of aluminium but for love of God i am looking on shopee and nothing looks right. only clue is hardware on the door is "D&W" brand

guess i need agency for non O renewal. recomendation?
true, i think its too much headache now reading about it. about border bounce... is it critical to do it at expiration time of current visa ? what if i did it earlier? are they going to force me to buy reentry on current visa? i know its annoying -asking too many questions . its just too many "unknowns" at once to choose independent search. Every response much appreciated. Thanks

how does this process work? you go to embassy in capital or there is Thai immigration at the border? apply visa same way as in my local immigration? and get 90 days "visa" to pickup proper visa at my local immigration later?
-

well i am learning that visa run not the same as border bounce anyway trip to border was mentioned. Local immigration might be playing chess and offer convenient $$ solution later. the 400K at the day of renewal of non O has to rest on account for 2 months. problem is i had it below 400k and by the time of renewal it would only be like 40 days old... so yeah big problem

Okaaaay i did not know that, thanks

sorry... i am from phetchabun city in Phetchabun. Well, Kaen Thao Border Crossing(Laos) looks good? unless we plan something more than just border run. assuming not every border crossing is good?
-

the closest one from phetchabun i guess? idk the science of border crossings, does it need to have official checkpoint?

that's very helpful DrJack54 thanks , one more question about border bounce . Do i need to pay reentry permit on my current visa or do i skip it and this way i get visa exempt?? or does my visa has to be already expired when i am in Laos? any border office can grant visa exempt? i am only 2 hours from Laos border

when my wife called them they didn't give me that option maybe because i used up that 60 day extension to marinate money first time i came here (married in thailand)
-
guess i need agency for non O renewal. recomendation?
already did that when i first came to thailand and apparently is not an option anymore?! Phetchabun immigration
-
guess i need agency for non O renewal. recomendation?
it happened. i transferred 400k 20 days too late because i misread expiration date of marry visa. By the time i apply money will not have marinated for whole 2 months. Local immigration say i have to use agency or do visa run. Really? there must be a better way. Any recommendation? can i do this with agency online? what would be the cost? pls help

external meter with Deye instead of CT
UPDATE: finally bought and installed Eastron sdm-230 meter (the one without CT) tested for the whole billing cycle and here are results: before Eastron : ~ 20% mismatch with PEA meter ( underestimate consumption- bill higher that deye numbers would suggest) after Eastron : 2-3% underestimate PEA meter so i would say accuracy improved by 10 fold. meter from PEA likely is slightly biased towards overcharging than losing money for utilities so it is acceptable. meter itself is not very useful to look but at least data collected from inverter either to deye cloud or home assistant is reliable and could be useful for correct calculation and statistics.

How do you deal with Inverter heat?
pcb has 2 channels . i bought it in case i have second inverter in the future. splitter is used to divide power to 3 fans so only one channel is used. whole enclosure is DIY connected with piece of aluminium and wood

- How do you deal with Inverter heat?
that pcb is a controller and a thermostat and cost like 2$. (PWM smooth control) For me overkill is involving software and programing but you still need switch for the fans. also using home assistant for collecting data from solarman. Used it to calibrate termostat to desired temp. After that you can forget it.- How do you deal with Inverter heat?
temp sensor connected to heatsink also. fans starting to speed up above 39C. with this pcb fans idle always (1.3w) i thought it was strange but room could benefit from ventilation. monitoring internal temperatures with home assistant.- How do you deal with Inverter heat?
i added extra exhaust to the outside . 3 pc fans automatically controlled by dedicated pcb. Room gets ventilation and inverter stays cool. since installed internal DC temperature never allowed to reach 70 C- N type, mono, split, bifacial solar panels are amazing!
quite a upgrade. I got half cuts bifacials on the roof (p type) and is is possible to briefly get more than 100% out of them. Once i got 5650w out of 5400 array. i dont think that would be possible on 1 faced panels- external meter with Deye instead of CT
whatever Deye cloud ( and home assistant using deye data) calculates is is off by like 2kwh a day. (pea meter spinning disc meter showing more consumption) i wonder if its worth to add meter like chnt ddsu666 (seen on aliexpress for like 15$) - would it calibrate deye calculations? also i dont want to look outside at the meter every couple of days , neighbor looking at me funny * i already tried to change CT ratio settings to calibrate it up and down and still error is the same,- For DIY installations, where do you buy parts from ?
type panels and stuff you like on FB search . Some wholesaler near you probably posted some advertisement. Respond. Might be necessary to chat to negotiate prize (use translator). Many times you can do cash on delivery or pickup yourself from warehouse. prices will be better than Lazada/ shopee that is what installers do anyway, if you find right people they will pass the savings to you and just come with all stuff and install.

actually looks like batteries coming down and you can buy 300ah for something like 50k after all adds like that poops on my facebook - How do you deal with Inverter heat?
