Thank You

I'm planning on spending two nights in Udon next week. the posts above paint a bleak picture but that was pandemic time so understandable. I'm looking for a hotel walking distance from a few restaurants and bars. What areas of the city should I be looking at? THX

I have a Honeywell stand up fan with water evaporation cooling function. Problem is it randomly leaks all the water out. After 2 clean up sessions I now have it in a plastic bin, fortunately the motor is high enough that it doesn't go under water. I bought at Power Buy and the less than switched on staff directed me to a shop house on the bypass that was not interested.  A Google search just now comes up with Kee Hin Electric, hard to imagine they'll look at it and Alpha Computer in Town. Hard enough to get them to repair a laptop. Sure would like to get it working, pretty hot these days.

▷ Phuket Vegetarian Festival 2023 - October 15th to October 24th - PHUKET 101

Thanks very much.  Just what I am looking for, I know my route for tomorrow. I also avoid driving as much as possible during the silliness. ????

Anyone have a link to the Veggie Festival parade schedule, time and route? I've tried a search with no luck, previous years it was easy. Sadly have to drive into town late Monday morning.

I am no plant expert, but came across your topic by chance, and did a goooogle.

 

Quite a few results on Lazada, with good reviews ... https://www.lazada.co.th/tag/artemisia-annua-seed/

Thank You VERY much. I'm not good with searches, i was using wormwood. Just ordered from Amazon, glad it is easy to cancel.

Here are the seeds I am looking for. When I try Amazon I can't find a vendor that doesn't have terrible reviews.

I'm not sure what you intend to do with it but experience suggests that there will be a plant in the Thai Pharmacopoeia or Ayurvedic medicine that grows better here and is probably better at the job. 

Thank you. I'll see what I can find

I would like to grow a wormwood bush. Anyone have experience with that and/or has purchased seeds in LOS?

I am hoping to grow wormwood to harvest the leaves. Has anyone bought the seeds in LOS? I have tried a lazada search with no luck. THX

I believe that these people also do tempered glass:   https://www.google.com/maps/place/Chalong+Glass+Aluminum+Co.,+Ltd./@7.841564,98.3492412,18z/data=!4m6!3m5!1s0x30502fadaf1d55a9:0xbb0ba09ba35b7cf1!8m2!3d7.841599!4d98.3496033!16s%2Fg%2F1hc3g1l5d?entry=ttu

I ordered today from Chalong Glass. Easy as could be. Thanks for the tip 

In need of replacement glass for my table. Anyone know who might sell or cut a new one? Mine is 44 " (112cm) THX

Catapult on the way, thank you for the information. Time to close the thread ????

What will happen is once you've used the catapult on them a few times they'll run before you get a chance to load up. They may be dogs but they ain't stupid.

Kind of think I'd have to hit them at least once to make sure they understand the message.

when central in Phuket town first opened there was s shop that sold crossbows an pellet guns but that was ages ago
I brought a nice pellet pistol off Lazada

I'm pretty sure that place is gone, but I'll have a look.

I have a BB gun and catapult. If I had to choose it would be a catapult. I use kids glass marbles as ammo. Normally both bought in 20 Baht shop.

Well I learned something today ????. I thought that the previous mention of catapult was a joke, now I'll give it a try.  What kind of range do they have?

Old Town.  They used to sell them in the basement of Robinsons department store.

 

Go to old town and then to one of the many motorbike modification shops there.  Have a photo of what you want on your phone if you don't speak Thai.  Ask the lads in the bike shops.  And then pay one to lead you to where the shop is that sells what you want.

 

Thank you 

Thank   you o

Just to be sure I'd like to confirm that Bangkok Airways has check in counter at the INTERNATIONAL terminal at Phuket Airport.

My ticket which is code share with EVA Air says Terminal D- Domestic Terminal ??

Anyone know where to buy a bong in Phuket? I'd rather see what I am buying than online

It's actually how the power from the standby battery gets to motor when mains power is out. All too common where I live ????

Hopefully I can get it repaired, do you know a place?

I see some water damage to the C.Board. I guess this could be driver circuit for the motor (forward/reverse). Easy to be repaired though, if this is the problem.

Think it must have came up when I was looking for key fobs to clone motor I have one .

The name in photo says LPSECURITY. The description of the item is Sliding gate opener motor circuit board card controller PCB motherboard.

The store name is jifdgg71181. Hopefully you will get something from one of these bits of info. The store seems to sell obscure electric parts like motherboards etc ????????

Thank You ???? I just googled jifdgg71181 and didn't get anything. Please excuse my limited online ability ????

Not sure what part you need but try lazada.

I had a German gate motor and the main board went and guys from a gate company said was 3000 bht to fix. It was around 7 year old and I said I can get a new motor for 4000 bht although Chinese made .

They stuck to price so I bought a new motor and had it installed and was fine for 4 weeks before it wouldn’t open one morning. Had people check it but couldn’t see what was wrong as it had electric and no sign of burn out anywhere, so I had call the original gate company. Guy came out and couldn’t see any problem but he changed main board at cost of 2800 bht ???????? and it worked. Few days later I seen same board on lazada for 900 bht !! Took him all of 10 mins to swap board over . 

Thank You how do you search for a circuit board? I have only seen a Digicraft part # on it
