That makes no sense. Why is there fast food chains in malls?

What it states, and what it is, may be 2 different things, if you read the replies. If it is the suspected (frame looks like) Make/Model vehicle posted, highly unlikely it was a lithium, let alone LFP battery.

Buecher is good also

Where does he/she top up the Hydrogen at in TH ? Do they live at Phi Suea House project ? Quick edit, scratch that thought, as that project is closed:

Bingo ... we have a winner. Free buffet is available, but some prefer to pay, and for lower quality. Does boggle the mind.

I believe we do, many after first visit, but I figured I give it a fair shake. Still didn't warm up to it after a few visits. Patts city/beach, Jomtien, another section, & Walking St was just sad, though probably an off night. Did find a nice perch bay side, and too dark to see most of the trash in the water, and nice shimmer of light on the rest. Actually pleasant sipping, except for the OTT, way too loud katoeys, entertaining themselves in 'look at me' mode, as the rest of the pier was empty. Did like the CarreFour when it was there, excellent 'take out' food section. But nah, no reason to return, and the last place I'd recommend to anyone.

You have choices, we order from Jone's Salad quite a bit when @ Krung Thep https://jonessalad.com/menu/salad/

Many times cheaper and easier than driving to get it yourself, especially if using an ICE car/truck. The business of delivery thrives for a reason.

Like any service, you need to pick an choose wisely. Delivery service has been excellent for us, especially when at Krung Thep. A lot more convenient than use going out to 'that' vendor during rush hour with the car or public trans, if not walking distance. If within 'almost' walking distance, still convenient to avoid the heat and vehicle exhaust. Scooter delivery many time faster. OP complains about big orders, but just imagine if those big orders, were done in person. hmm ... longer Q & wait time as they order.

Reading that poses more questions than answers, along with contradicting the news-blips from the echo box reports. Clear as mud translation. Possible 'user error' ... or not. "And the fire was under control by 10.45 am, no one was injured. Teachers and students are safe. ???? It is currently in the process of investigating the cause." Cause-still unknown ... "The college has set up a committee to investigate the cause of the fire."

Not sure about sad, but unnecessary. Not counting 'I forgot your name' overnighters, I've had 7 relationships here/TH, from couple months, to couple years, to present 17 yr long GF/Wife. I find women no easier nor harder to find, than back in the USA. Possibly even easier back in the USA, due to language. The gal not being fluent in English, or my lack of decent Thai, never really hindered that much here.

Why would you pay them anything. Can understand having some pocket money, so not to ask you all the time for some spending cash. But to pay a 'salary', basically, to be your GF, changes the title of GF to employee. Maid w/bennies to be kind. Why do people in TH, do things they would never do in their home country? Anyone ever pay their GF outside of TH, to be with them? Pay if you like, but don't call her your GF, if the moment you stop paying, she'll leave. That's an employee.

And yet, with my bad back, I can ride in ours for hours, unlike our Toyota & Mazda at the same price point.

Yes it is, and why I stopped buying Detroit crap as my sole dependable transport, when living in USA. Datson/Nissan & Mazda. Even my Ford Escort was a rebadged Mazda. I don't do the country/make allegiance thingy. Give me the best value for my baht, and I'll buy it. I left the USA ... nuff said

I thought he was spot on. How many BMCs are still producing and how many have gone belly up, taken over, because intelligent people stopped buying their crap.

My thoughts also

Nice find, and I don't think that would be the specs of a lithium battery (6v225Ah(12 ball ?). 6v X 12 lead acid, dry or gel cell batteries, would equal the 72v battery reported. Also explain the quick extinguishing of the fire.

Or Somchai falling asleep while smoking ???? ... oops

Nice ???? ... I keep them parked outside under the carport. Newer tech & chemistry, and no worries or sleepless nights. Just low cost & high performance transport ????

We don't want to take up all the bandwidth of the forum ????

Or every kitchen, restaurant & house fire started by fossil fuel; gas cylinders, BBQ grills, etc. Not just Satan's EV fires, that may or not been caused by the battery ????

Watching the vid, it was a larger golf cart type of EV, and I may be wrong, but that squarish, rectangular box thingy, sure does look like where the batteries would be placed, and surprisingly, looking intact. Was it really a lithium battery, as if that is the battery compartment, it's way bigger than needed for a 72v lithium battery. Or could simply be support for the seat, and battery bay was elsewhere. Was it being charged at the time of the fire. A few question that need to be addressed, such as 'the cause'. Extinguishing the fire in 20 minutes, counter to the reports of how hard it is to extinguish lithium battery fires. Just a thought. I'll await the follow up, which will never arrive. All safe, and that's all that matters ????

How many times are you going to post it ? There's a few more EV thread you can post it on. A 5 day old story, and the echo box news-blips seem to be leaving out these to little tidbits, possibly from the original story, 5 days ago ... .... "All 12 individuals are safe and taken to the Sri Rayong Hospital for check-ups" ... "The university said an investigative committee was formed to determine the cause of the fire." Taken to hospital for smoke inhalation, not burns or flying bits & pieces. https://www.newsflare.com/video/582899/twelve-people-injured-when-car-battery-explodes-at-school-in-thailand

Didn't dismiss anything, just stated what wasn't stated. Not denying EV's batteries have oops, that's a proven fact.

Catchy headline, but a 72v battery (I think) would be used in a golf cart type thing, or a MB. My scooter has a 72v battery, and wouldn't power much more than a golf cart, which wouldn't go far with much of a load. Not much info beyond the headline, and 'injured' may be a stretch. Other 'echo box' news-blip ... "All 12 individuals are safe and taken to the Sri Rayong Hospital for check-ups" Along with ... "The university said an investigative committee was formed to determine the cause of the fire." 5 days later, and still no cause reported, and if not the EV's battery as the cause, will that fact make the news ... doubtful. Here's a better story for your spin. Sh!t happens, get over it: https://tpnnational.com/2020/10/02/two-school-buses-and-a-school-building-burst-into-flames-after-electric-bus-battery-explosion-at-international-school-in-bangkok/
