    Shots

    Mine are more like 300cc, and i'm in Pattaya. As a rule of thumb, I count till ten while pouring..............sometimes I lose the count
  2. What percentage of long term residents are business owners? You think it exceeds 1%
  3. Sales are currently being propped up by “fleet” purchases courtesy of massive government subsidies that allow employees to write off the cost of leasing against income tax. The UK’s Zero Emission Vehicle (ZEV) mandate requires 52 per cent of new cars to be EVs by 2028, rising to 80 per cent by 2030 and 100 per cent by 2035. I guess Hertz is not active in the UK ?
  4. So 2-3 EV's in Udon is an explosion? Well there maybe a real explosion involving an EV one of the days. You realise since you see them always at the same school, it is likely it are the same 2-3 ones every time?
  5. Aren't we old enough yet to know that everything the Chinese claim is fake? I was looking at outdoor solar light the other day, and it said IP65 waterproof, as all those lights from China claim. Then in the reviews there was a picture from the received item, and it said in big letters IP44. I have done a lot of business with China in the last 15 years, and I still have to get one single item that has the spec as claimed by the manufacturer
  6. When after only 5 months they already know they not gonna reach their 12 month target, then I think this will not be the last downgrade for the year
  7. And you are the perfect example of your claim, since you think there is a need to ALWAYS include every extensive OP in your one line replies
  8. Can I ask where you would be living? $1 million is not what it was. It will barely buy a house in the US or UK. 40 million baht is more than $1 million to start with, but also it means you must have a lot more than that. You need 40 million to lock up for 3 years, on top of the money to buy the land and build the house, and living expenses for at least 3 years. Sounds more like you will need like 80 million baht to be able to buy 1 Rai of land in your name. BTW, everything in the OP is known to me for many years, so where are the changes?
  9. Item arrived today, but no worky. Occasionally it will stop the gate, but most of the time not, so return to sender
  10. 366 - 180 = 186 Anyway I'm sure you are a troll, because why would the time of flight out of Thailand on the 157th day of the year be a concern. You have to get better at trolling mate
  11. I think you must be looking in the wrong places. I get between 1.8 and 2.25% on my saving accounts in Thailand, depending on which bank, since I spread my savings for security reasons. These are regular savings accounts which I can withdraw every day. If I choose for fixed time deposits, I can get a higher interest
  12. Maybe if people stopped replying to his troll posts, it would stop..........damn I just ignored my own advice
  13. No Bob is no troll
  14. That you consider the word obvious as an insult, in your case, speaks for itself. Using the words EXTREME right, for a party which didn't resort to any extreme action, just adds to it all.
  15. The Netherlands PVV party already formed a coalition. Nowhere in any democratic country in the world, the army has the last word in who forms the coalition, and that is what you still don't want to understand for obvious reasons
  16. But in all those countries, the party with the most votes gets to form the coalition.
  17. I wonder why my posts, which were actually just some facts and evidenced by an article, attracted so many confused emojis. Since all posts from other members, which don't agree with the EV hype, attract the same confused emojis it is obvious that they are from the EV fanboys and explains why they are so into the EV hype and consider themselves EV experts because they own one. con·fused /kənˈfyo͞ozd/ adjective adjective: confused (of a person) unable to think clearly; bewildered. Similar: demented • not in possession of all one's mental faculties, especially because of old age
  18. I have had at least 10 PC's, still doesn't make me an expert, and thanks for the confused emoji, it clearly shows that you have no leg to stand on contradicting the FACTS in the article I linked to.
  19. EV's are fairly new to Thailand, so it is normal that there is still an increasing interest here, similar to anywhere in the world when EV's were introduced. After the "new" factor has sunk in, sales fall everywhere. https://rogermontgomery.com/ev-sales-decline-leads-to-more-ev-sales-declines/ Even in Norway, the fourth largest EV market in Europe, where EV sales comprise 90 per cent of all vehicle sales thanks to incentives and tax reductions, EV registrations have halved. Perhaps saturation has something to do with Norway’s story. In the UK, which now leads Europe in electric vehicle sales, March saw an increase of almost four per cent and an increase of almost 10 per cent in the first quarter. Despite this growth, the UK EV market share has fallen slightly from 16.6 per cent to 15.2 per cent in the last year. Yes it reads good for the EV fanboys when the figures show high percentages increase in sales. FYI, if year over year sales increase from 100 to 200, that is a 100% rise, but it still means nothing. Because you are a EV fanboy, and probably own one, doesn't make you knowledgeable about them. I own a PC, but that doesn't make me a computer expert.
  20. Just my 2 cents worth. I have spoken with 2 departments of the revenue office in jomtien. First the department which do the collection of the taxes, who because they couldn't answer my questions, directed me to the legal department, where I spoke with the top man. I asked him, how do I prove that what I send over are savings or income. Answer: You don't have to prove, we believe you. Question: If so everyone gonna claim it are savings Answer: Yes but if we do an audit and find it is income, you will be fined. Question: So in such a case, how do I prove that is are savings. Answer: you don't need to prove, we believe you, you don't even need to declare savings. At that point, I thought it was better to let it go
  21. Not sure if something get lost in translation, but for the mechanical switch of the Foresee motor, they clearly provide an AC and DC version, for a reason unknown to me.
  22. Yes I'm aware of that, but since the BSM motor runs on AC, and the mechanical switch for my Foresee F500 motor, clearly differs between AC and DC motors, so there must be a difference somewhere. Since you seem to be well-informed on this subject, maybe you know where the difference will be. https://www.aliexpress.com/item/1005002630161335.html Foresee Original Stroke Switch Limit Switch For F500 F550 Electric Sliding Gate Opener Sliding Door Motor Note: Door resistance accessories are divided into AC and DC, which are accessories on different motors, please pay attention to the distinction.Original AC door resistance accessories suitable for F500B/F500M/F500G/F500G+/F550M/F550G I could have ordered one a little cheaper, and get actually exactly the same product, but it didn't state if it was AC or DC. https://www.lazada.co.th//products/i5034327506-s21285178581.html? So I thought I should remove all speculation and order one designed for an AC motor.
  23. Found an AC version on Shopee for 270 bht, so it's on the way, and soon will know if it works, otherwise it get returned. I have chatted with multiple sellers on Shopee and Lazada, but none of them actually know if it will work. Will keep you updated
  24. I'm going to replace this part on my car, as it seems to be leaking somewhere, either the tube or the connection, but difficult to see. But since they will be fixing other things on the car, and I found an aftermarket version at a reasonable price, I will proceed. Nissan uses these washers, which are 640 baht for the pair, and not easily resourced in aftermarket, while 4 copper washers from the same dimensions would set me back 50 baht in total. Is there a particular reason why Nissan makes them in this shape, and I shouldn't use separate washers?
