A few final numbers added to yesterday for 24 hr period. 18.4kWh while still producing matching consumption 23.4kwh consumed for 24 hr day ... 'on the meter' Driving EVs during that period, normal daily driving: ... scooter, 12 kms using ~ 0.5kWh ... car, 15 kms using 4% / 2kWh Dining out, not normal, so maybe add 2 or 3kWh for dinner prep & AC use, during that 2hrs out of the house. Easily anther 5kWh added to meter, so a 30kWh a day +/- For an outdoor temps day of H33° / L24° We used 1.5kWh from midnight - 0600 hrs Actually fell asleep early, so we'll call that 7kWh +/- overnight when not producing during warm temps. Increased #s when daily temp H35+ & L30 +/- come March, April, early May EDIT: 0730 production now matching consumption. ????

When did aspirin become a controlled drug? (It is now)

Try a different pharmacy as I just bought a years (6x60tabs) supply about 8 days ago. -
Normal daytime use, 0000/midnight to 1630, still producing what we're consuming. No extras today, no EVs charging. Using: 2 frigs, 2 ACs (9 & 24BTUs), 65" TV on most of the day, and laptop to that, TV as my monitor. Just now, wife threw in a load of wash (?) in , and jumped in shower (3.5kWh (5mins). I already showered (3.5kWh (10mins). I baked bread, 2.2kWh for 30mins, and that's it for the day, for electric use, aside from morning coffee, <0.5kWh. Produced 23.4kWh and consumed 18.4kWh, up to now. See what happens, consumed now till midnight. Heading out for a munch, then after dinner, wee bit of torrents before sleep. AC's will be off in about 15 mins.

UP2U ... and your finances, but if it's in the budget, and she is worthy, and responsible enough, grades ... bla bla bla ... Why not ... IF her first phone, or if prone to losing things and or need replacing every year... ... hell NO, let her lose some <10k baht phone before going all in expensive. Also, at 17, will she actually use the features, or is simply chit chat, msging, IG, then any <10k baht phone would do. Don't need 35k baht worth of features, if 10k baht phone will do.

Depends what you're trying to do, and already stated, design of room, ceiling height mainly. With average RH of 60-80% all year, the fan may help, till temps hit 35C, then not a whole lot of perspirations, moisture is going to be evaporating off your skin, thus the cooling effect. That's if it's not rainy season and knocking on 100% RH. Fan with AC use, whether set on cool or just dehumidifier mode will make a noticeable difference. Getting the RH down near 50%, and temps closer to 30C. We keep AC's on 26-28C Not a fan of ceiling fans, in hot weather, as may simply circulate the hotter air near the ceiling downward. Better, an exhaust fan placed high, then the cooler AC air will force the hotter, up & out. Our house cools off much quicker, if turn on exhaust fans when starting the ACs, if needed. Though we usually turn ACs on before house warms up, then just leave on all day. At night, can get away with just the AC and or floor fan on low. Sometimes, when cooler, not needing either, if temps outside are mid 20sC. We rarely open the windows, as simply too much humidity or smog, depending on season, and better kept outside.

My First Ever Health Checkup - Do I need to add any extra Tests ?
KhunLA replied to backstreet's topic in Health and Medicine
No wonder your lightheaded when waking, body starved for nutrients or energy. And only lass 2 kg ... that pretty sad, and obviously not working for you. Try intermittent fasting, not eating from 9pm to noon, overnight. Then eat whatever you want, common sense & moderation, from noon to 6pm, maybe a snack before bed if like me, can't sleep on empty stomach. That works for me, and way too easy, since sleeping half the time fasting. Definitely don't stop the statin, as obviously working very good, since triglycs & LDL dropped considerably. -
Think I'm getting a peek at how much energy we'll be using come March, April and half of May, before rainy season hits. Yesterday was another high kWh use day, as topped up the car & scooter, along with ACs going all day and most of the evening. Sunday broke 41kWh, and Monday, actually broke 40kWh. Sunday: 41 - 19.9 (car) = 21+kWh for house load Monday 40 - 13.4 (car) - 3 (scooter) = 23+kWh for house load. Only difference, less for EVs, but more for ACs, since turning on earlier, and temps higher: What is missing, is any other appliances being used. I didn't do any baking, rare, as usually baking something, bread or pastries, which is 1 hr of electric, at 2kWh. Mrs. out playing in garden, so not sewing, washing clothes or ironing, which are motors & heating elements and sometimes she's running those for anywhere from 2-6 hrs. If we were to top up the car everyday, that would probably be about 5kWh, and only 30-35 kms a day. Myself & dog can put those on easily cruising around, hit the park, surf, search for critters to photograph. All fairly minimal use, so 20-25-30kWh a day, come hot season won't be much of a stretch. We averaged about 15kWh a day to run house, since installation, without the EVs. But little to no AC use till just recently. Since long rainy season, overcast, nice temps, then a nice cool season. Now that seem to be over, and expecting 30sC till the rains start. 20 or 25kWh a day, for minimal use, house, ACs & EVs, and we'll be matching or exceeding our PEA usage from the rental, of 600-700kWh a month, which we based the size of the system on. May not have overestimated after all. Definitely think 10kWh ESS will not be enough in hot season, as 14 hrs of AC+ overnight is about 7kWh or more. Really don't want to take ESS down to 30% or lower. So with 20kWh ESSs, we'll easily stay above 50%. Just 13 days of February, and broke 300kWh, and just now using the ACs all day. 300 ÷ 13 = 23 a day X 30 = 692kWh monthly.

Hundreds of macaque monkeys disappear from temple in Loei
KhunLA replied to webfact's topic in Isaan News
Wish they'd pop down here and get rid of about 1000 of them. Quite the menace and will mug you of any bag you carry or even on your motorbike. https://thairesidents.com/local/monkeys-take-over-prachuap-khiri-khan-town-hall/ -

Remove your rings or else this could happen!

Nah, they did float the idea, to test the waters, and I think they got a lot of negative feedback. Thankfully Disney has nothing to do with the Bond franchise, or the new Bond would be a trans, in an inter racial relationship with a one legged lesbian.

Oscar-nominated film tackles transphobic harassment
KhunLA replied to Social Media's topic in Entertainment
Reading the OP, 2 idiots could harass anyone, for any excuse, whether: race, religion, sex, disability, age, dress, or simply being a ginger, from what I read. Everyone may and can get harassed. Most times, a bus, train, plane, carriage full of people don't want to get involved. Not knowing if the harassers are nutters or armed. Guess trans are the flavor of the week, month, year, decade. Please, we need another reminder how different and included you should be. Is there anyone, ever, that didn't get harassed one time or another. We got harassed for having long hair, living on the other side of the tracks (literally), and being poor. And associating with black folks ... 'damn negro lovers' ???? Cry me a river....???? -

Every little bit of extra alternative energy helps. Guessing he's charger a battery or running extra light at night. Whatever, I LIKE IT ... ????

Russian soldier death rate highest since first week of war - Ukraine

"according to Ukrainian data ... The figures cannot be verified" ???? ... nuff said -
If we did 40kwh a day, then a PEA bill would be ฿6800 a month ???? Without the car, we're only using 15-20kWh a day, 450-600 for the month. The scooter doesn't use much, and inverter ACs are way too efficient. Starting to use the house ACs more, as warming up quickly down here/PKK. Out of the house most of the morning yesterday. March & April will add a bit of kWh with ACs running non stop, but don't think much more. If run overnight past midnight, another 4kWh a day.

Breaking another record, most produced/consumed in 1 day, without export. Exceeded 41 before, but were exporting about 15kWh to grid. Yesterday, 41 ish kWh, with the MG ZS using 20 of those kWh. ZS will use another 13kWh today when finished topping up. And we didn't even turn on the ACs for the house till noon ????
