  1. Nano have outlets with downward facing sockets, where you can use two plugs at the same time. Unfortunately not switched, but guess you can't have everything https://www.lazada.co.th/products/2x4-nano-usb-usb-i2733838174-s9910624047.html?
  2. These switched power outlets are all well and good, unless wired the wrong way. But, Hey! this is Thailand, what are the chances
  3. Don't know if this has been mentioned:- TV series coming soon 1923 A Yellowstone origin story The Duttons face a new set of challenges in the early 20th century, including the rise of Western expansion, Prohibition and the Great Depression. With Helen Mirren and Harrison Ford, should be quite watchable
  4. All of the above but also important is to make a "Drip Loop" on the wire going into the shower unit. A drip loop is where you bend down the ingoing wire just below the level of the hole where it goes into the shower unit. The idea is that water that splashes onto any part of the ingoing wire will drip off the loop and not trickle into the unit it's self. A drip loop is good to have on any electrical installation no matter how good the seal may appear to be.
  5. I recently bought an electric chainsaw from Lazada:- https://www.lazada.co.th/products/aridoo-12-chainsaw-2200w-i3886178793.html?spm=a2o4m.searchlist.list.132.4e084eb25DLjOU Never had or used a chainsaw before, and same as "Madam" opted for a mains instead of battery for same reason. Works quite well on most woods but struggles a bit with harder wood like a Mango stump I'm trying to cut out of the ground. The motor does tend to get quite hot when cutting hard wood so I take frequent brakes, at my age it's just a well As mentioned in the other thread you can use just about any oil, I use 40w engine oil which seems to work, it all gets quite oily so must be ok. Happy Cutting
  6. Remembered a post from 2016 where a guy had a heater conversion fitted to HIlux. https://aseannow.com/topic/890045-heater-conversion/ https://siammotorworld.com
  7. Wasn't that long ago everyone was falling over themselves getting Gas conversions to their cars. Technology can move faster than you think
  8. Casually browsing through Lazada I stumbled on these US Dollar bills for sale. I know they are fake money "Widely use in Movie prop money, social media advertisements, movie shoots, for the development of our children and parties" But they sure look a bit too authentic to me and I don't think I'd like the local BIB to catch me with a bunch of those in my possession https://www.lazada.co.th/products/520yoswi-100pcs-artifact-full-print-magic-videos-show-off-wealth-bills-dollar-money-prop-i3838590425.html?spm=a2o4m.searchlist.list.30.71dc380co6GQ5x
  9. Steel wool would have to be fixed or they'll scratch it out. Perhaps a mix of expanding foam and steel wool. Kitchen scour pads work quite well.
  10. Very true, but sometimes I like to know stuff just for the sake of knowing Thereby lies the dilemma. If I try to straighten the handle and it snaps I'll have an unsafe bike to go and buy a replacement. If I buy a new handle before trying to fix the bent one I won't have to bother with trying to straighten it. Life eh!
  11. Yea! Sorry was feeling a little cranky that morning. Nothing personal, love you all
  12. Thanks for all the replies, non of which answered the actual question, still that's to be expected here Anyways the problem is solved. Master cylinder on the right handlebar needed to be fixed and they replaced it with a complete unit including brake lever but in black. Wife thought it looked odd so had the lever on the left, the bent one also replaced with a black one so problem solved, and wife happy.
  13. Or water, damp, humidity?
  14. I have been a user of Microsoft and their browser for years. First "Internet Explorer" and since its launch "Edge", never had a problem. The other morning came to click on the Edge icon and instead of the browser springing to life as it has done for years, all I got was a small spinning circle for a second or two and nothing, no Edge opened. Luckily, some time ago, had I also installed Google Chrome and was therefor able to use Chrome to connect to the Internet to try to troubleshoot the Edge problem. A few hectic days of scouring the internet trying all the suggestions to get Edge going again failed so have resorted to using Chrome. The point of this post, as in the title, is a heads up for those with only one computer to install a second browser so you will have access to the internet should you main browser fail. Without a backup browser and access to the Internet you will be well and truly stuffed in fixing any problem, even contacting this site for help would not be possible A further point, whatever backup browser you choose be sure to import all your browser Bookmarks and Favorites to the backup, because once your main browser fails it may be too late to save all that information.
  15. Many bikes when they fall over bend the brake/clutch lever on the handlebars. While this doesn't usually affect the operation of the levers it does look a bit unsightly, so was wondering if it's possible to bend back the levers without breaking? I guess in theory if bent one way it should be able to bend them back into the original position or not Anyone tried it, did it work?
