  1. Had a similar experience looking for Kerry Express locations on Google Maps. Most of them were closed or didn't exist (anymore).
    A friend of mine had the same experience looking for Yamaha motorbike shops.

    From this I assume deleting places in Google Maps takes a long time.

  2. A Portable Power Station is an Off Grid System. When there is a power outage you have to disconnect your devices, e.g. computer or water pump from the grid and connect them to the Portable Power Station. This can be done manually or automatically by a separate switch.

    More comfortable is using a Hybrid On and Off Grid Inverter which switches automatically within 20 ms or less. There are very flexible inverters which can be used off grid or on grid, with or without solar panel, with or without battery, with or without a generator or all together.

    To cover power outages you can start with an inverter and a battery. The battery is charged from the grid. More batteries, solar panels or generator can be added later. Even more inverters can be added later.

    See e.g.

  3. Phrases like

    • "common sense"
    • "real genuine common sense"
    • "proper decency"
    • "laws that make sense"

    aren't universal.
    I.e everybody makes up his own.
    And by declaring them as universal other opinions are ignored or judged inferior.
     
    In a society only commonly agreed rules can be regarded as common.

     

    "Which politician should I vote for whom will support my 'voice'?"
    "The elite creates laws/rules to benefit themselves and control the rest."


    Other people have another opinion. To convince them of your opinion or to come to a common one can be hard work. Thus it's easier to ignore the common laws/rules and declare ones own as "common sense".

  4. If your system is isolated and the manufacturer of the inverter doesn't require earthing in this case, I wouldn't connect it to earth. Because touching any blank wire wouldn't result in an electric shock. An isolated, unearthed system is already what you achieve by using an "Isolation transformer" in an earthed system.

     

    Earthing one wire and touching the other, the then "live wire", could give a shock.

    Sugar cane field burning is carried out before harvesting the cane to make the process easier and require less manual labor.

    Sugarcane burning is estimated to contribute more than half of Palm Beach County’s total emissions for 15 hazardous air pollutants.

    It's even done in richer countries.
    The polluters save money.
    The dealers buy cheaper and make more money.
    The population pays.

    If you had your stamps transferred at immigration when you got the new passport your old passport number will be on the first visa page of your new passport. There should be big stamp that has the info on it.

    Is this problem only with SCB or with Kasikorn too, or you can go to any branch with KBank to update your passport number?

    Three different bank employees required my old passport and sent me to the branch where I opened the account. The fourth knew about the stamp from immigration, didn't require my old passport and didn't send me to the opening branch. It was the person not the bank.
