The reason why you will always get a different price per unit is because the first 150kWh costs 3.2484 per kWh the next 250 kWh. ( 151st – 400th) costs 4.2218 per kWh and everything after costs 4.4217 per kWh then you add on the ft charge for each unit, the standing charge and VAT on everything. And that is only if you are on a 1.1.2 tariff. The ft charge is valid for 3 months and is currently ฿0.2048 it has varied between about -2 baht and + 1.5 baht. So it makes a huge difference.

It’s a 50/50 diesel paraffin mix and the bamboo needs to be soaked, the smell is not everlasting, only about a week.

I have a small bottle of Argon if I ever get the urge to get into SS welding and I would probably get a TIG torch for my welder for SS rather than using flux-core, I still have an unopened 5kg spool of flux-core if I ever need to do anything outside, but can’t see me doing anything with SS.

So why are you asking what 75/25 is if you are so all fired up about your capabilities how are you so ignorant of the most basic standard mix. Clueless, patronising and probably why you won’t weld galvanised now, is your cognitive capacity really that bad now? Or are you just making a poor attempt at being a troll? Or an even worse attempt at joking?
-
I also read about diesel and paraffin as a good treatment. Untreated bamboo will rot quite quickly.
-
You probably never use gas for MIG then as it is the standard MIG gas mix for most steel, pure CO2 is cheaper but promotes splatter, since I only do a little the cost savings are virtually irrelevant to me, since I don’t use stainless pure argon is not of interest.
-
That is impossible to do on the inside of anything but circular pipe so the toxic fumes are a given, though I haven’t noticed that much splatter using 75/25 but I do wire brush most of my welds and use an organic filter mask to control the zinc fumes. so far I haven’t tried anything much that I haven’t brushed the zinc off so can’t comment on how easy it is to weld without proper prep, but I will give it a try on a sample.

Which of the 2 units are you talking about? The little one uses standard SLA’s

Is it an Apple Product? Since it isn’t why post in this forum?

Well rather than giving a totally non answer please give a couple of ways that explain your reasoning. So far, though in my extremely simplistic example , you haven’t managed to explain how a 100% commission (though I rather doubt the existence of one, except as I said in extraordinary situations) gives anything to the hotel. I am certainly not any kind of expert in the ways and would like to be educated. I am clear that I don’t believe in the 100% commission in general but unless you can show a way that my logic is unsound the principle is sound. making claims, is easy to quote the Bard William Shakespeare Henry IV, Part I, Act III, Scene 1 “Glendower: I can call the spirits from the vasty deep. Hotspur: Why, so can I, or so can any man; But will they come, when you do call for them?”

That seems like a company trying to differentiate its product If it is steel/iron with a zinc coating it is galvanised That there are different processes to coat the base material doesn’t change the fact that it is steel/iron with a zinc coating. That Tata Steel is promoting its product with the trade name Zintec doesn’t change it from being galvanised steel. That Tata Steel may have a more uniform product doesn’t change it from being galvanised steel. Tata Steel’s product may be a better grade of galvanised steel and they are certainly trying to get away from using the name galvanised steel, but if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and quacks like a duck then it is a duck and calling it a swan makes no difference to the fact that it is a duck
-
Quite possible, as I said I don’t know the process. It’s just the available material locally. Also it demonstrates that @Yellowtail is probably talking about his area as galvanised is generally easily available here. It is coated inside and out, and the coating was not burned off the weld, so you are probably correct Electro would be my guess and the final forming done after plating. I didn’t bother with my micrometer, just a cheap vernier calliper so I could be 0.1mm out but it is the wall thickness and the rolling former marks are reasonable distinct. It wont be. It isn’t
-
It is perfectly possible that other Apple authorised resellers may do something similar, you would need to ask.

If the advertised rate is 4,000 the customer pays 4,000, 100% commission = 4,000 hotel gets 0% If the advertised rate is 8,000 the customer pays 8,000, 100% commission = 8,000 hotel gets 0% If the advertised rate is 8,000 the customer pays 8,000, 50% commission = 4,000 hotel gets 50% This seems simple math please demonstrate how this is incorrect

I do rather like your optimism, and lack of business sense, I would dislike being a business partner with you as I would be going out of business rather quickly. Wages are quite likely to depend on time not flat rate and even if flat rate the staff have less time to complete other tasks. You may pay the hotel for the food, drinks and get them to book other things for you, personally I am like many people I know and have never paid more than the room rate so your imaginary extra income is precisely that, imaginary
-
Yes this one is 1.2mm and probably not hot galvanised, it’s on both surfaces The 4” other square section is not welded there is no join. I don’t know the forming process. It is also 1.2mm wall, it is probably cold rolled from the marks on the pipe.
-
I think you must have forgotten the a hotel incurs costs for each room that is occupied, apart from direct costs like room cleaning, amenities, laundry there is also the fractional cost of the support staff and building among others. So they are losing money if those costs are not covered, so while I agree that a 100% commission is close to impossible except in extraordinary unusual circumstances the hotel will effectively be paying the guest or booking agent.

Further information, the battery will read a discharged when it reaches between 3v & 3.4v it however it still contains a significant amount of power stored so is far from safe and can still create a toasty warm up to 2,500C thermal runaway fire

I’m not sure about availability anywhere other than in my area but galvanised rectangular and square tubing is stocked by all the local steel suppliers, in fact the village store only carries galvanised tube, round, square and rectangular, it is special order for uncoated. Angle though is all uncoated. So it may well be area specific.

in that case don’t use the wrong pump for the job. Use one of these cheap enough that if it grenades, unlikely but possible, jut buy another.
-
@mran66 if you want to keep using the pump with your small hose then put in a standard pressure switch or even adjust the switch to a lower than standard pressure. This should, though once again it is counterintuitive, allow you to run the pump for far longer before it cuts off. look at the chart I posted the higher the flow you are trying to achieve the far greater the friction loss. Reduce the flow The friction loss drops drastically for your pipe.
-
You have run into the problem that is inherent in your pump as you have modified the pressure switch, this is trying to force the water through a far too small pipe that is far too long The answer, though it seems counterintuitive, is to use a bigger garden hose probably at least a 1” or 1½”. SWMBO made the same mistake. She was using a ¾ pipe and complaining that the garden watering took too long. I bought a 1½“ 100 meter hose, she was extremely dubious about using it, within a week she was completely convinced by the results. Your problem is that a ½” is introducing far too much friction so slowing your watering use a 1½ hose and you have almost a 20 fold reduction in friction loss, though it is also dependent on the flow NOTE bigger numbers are worse.

As has been mentioned there is zero difference in strength between the same grade and thickness of galvanised vs mild steel. However if it’s going to be welded take proper safety precautions as zinc smoke is toxic. The thicker the steel the longer it will last before rust compromises the strength. Also though galvanised will have a much longer life before it rusts it will eventually rust once the zinc has been depleted.

There are lots of places that sell used iPads in almost every shopping mall, the difficulty is having any idea of the condition it’s in. Also the older you go the more likely you will need a replacement battery, and the sooner it drops out of support so your app may not function. A new 9th gen starts from 13,000
