As you were concerned about environment and all associated things, I opened up about it and wrote. But ok when to stop, maybe too enthusiastic writing. Of course for your solar system you need to know, how much power you will use. How much Watt, how many panels, how many batteries. You can use ATS (non-grid), to switch back to grid automatic. There is no light in evening, night. So or battery system and/or with still ATS. You dont put battery system on grid, you waste your own power. The warm water heater is only working when measured value of temp is below setpoint. Then it will use power. However you can use solar heater. Like this: Also 2-300 ltr's .You dont need extra shower heaters on electricity If your AC is running a lot, you have a lot of waste heat at the outside unit. It is waste, you could put a heat ex-changer "right in front" of it heating up water going to an isolated tank. Could be a radiator of a car/motor with your own attached isolated pipes. Or pre heating for solar heater?! Of course the air flow out of AC should not really be effected. So maybe with extra fan on exchanger to keep good air flow. Of course you need to clean once in a while. After all what is temp blowing out?! 50-60 degrees?! But maybe then you are busy making all work. Hobby? Weird there is no such system, or are there? Working temperature of solar panels is 25 degrees, with every degree above, efficiency drops with 0.4 %. In Thailand the panels will get as hot as 60 degrees, meaning a loss of 14 %. Keeping them cool is important, enough cooling space. On a slope so also rainwater can wash off with collected dirt. Or you can do as Bandersnatch, but cost some.

One day at the time Britman, keep up the spirit ! Ill hope you dont catch a cold and start coughing, then you really have hell. -
A lot to be said about all, but first. Environmental: the solar panels cant be recycled, when at end of life. Just red recently. Wondering what are "they" going to do with them. Windmills have the a same problem, their blades need to be changed regular. And now there are lots of them and will grow. Blades, each, of eventually 145 meters long ! Now they are already on over 100 meters. We will do the same with solar panels? Red a company in Denmark has "solution", they created chemical mixture ! to eat the blades. However creating CO2. And what is chemical mixture? Again oil from where we make it from. However that could also work for panels? Now wind blades are landfill, as shown on a pic. And then Im not even talking about how to create those blades, transporting, fixing them to turbine and so on. All on oil, so what is environmental? Batteries Li, they can recycle. Li is in limited amounts in the world. Winning Li by, for instance, injecting water in soil. Red in South America, 20000 ltr/SEC of clean water injected into the soil, to win Li. And then it has to be processed further. Getting the Li out of the water, however not only Li is in the water. So it cost lots of energy to win Li, oil. But profitable and so in name of "green", we do. So how environmental is everything? Li working as battery needs additional processing, so thus again oil. All have to be made with fossil fuels, even the plastics are from oil. Speaking environmental, all is a joke. It seems we already tilted the position of the earth and melting ice of poles cant be reversed in short time anymore. It is an accelerating reaction ! Some articles I red this week, truth, fake? All is possible these days. Fact is, there are too many people on this planet in the system we created. See movie "10 billion" on youtube. And then we were lucky to have many wars in the past, killing people. Yha , I know it sounds odd, but cant make it otherwise. We must be very grateful all those people gave their lives, otherwise we would, could be now in way bigger problems already. An estimated 8 million metric tons of plastic waste enters the ocean each year So environmental? It is a joke.

Well had to see what was the CBR 150, but it looks like a racer. Steering down low, you (can) will feel it when you are on bike longer. You are bend forwards, leaning on your hands, wrists. For city rides , I would go with onemorefarang or vocalneal. On those bikes you sit more straight up. Once tried a Yamaha thundercat and I liked it, but bought a thunderace (higher cc's), but the ace was more lower sitting. I thought they were about the same, but there was a difference in sitting position. Didnt try and bought. Have regretted it and 2 years later changed to Suzuki bking. Sitting more straight up. However those machines are more better for longer distances. A Bking is a 1300 ccc with 181 Hp, had to be really aware with that baby. Did once 220 km/h and still had gas to go, but I didnt. I believe it could go up to 300. So normally would do 150-180 km/h on very short tracks, as "my"country is filled with speed cams.

Some people make cholesterol levels too high them selves, not with eating fat food. The body does. Knew a guy, normal good posture, had high cholesterol, but he was working like a dog and not fat eating at all. But on cholesterol reducers for it. His body made too much cholesterol. I had high cholesterol and went on statines, I will never have them again. Got all kind of problems with body, snacking them. Red about curcuma and started that one. The specialist took blood sample and it was low, so I said it is working. NO, he said, cant. OK so i knew it wouldnt work (placebo effect would be gone, as he told me it doesnt work), however kept on going with curcuma. And next time blood sample, the cholesterol was low again! My body changed or curcuma does work? No clue. I had to stop, as an old problem came up again, headache. Same as with statines but less hard. Weird, there is something in curcuma, which brought back this complaint . My headache disappeared again, stopping curcuma, again after having curcuma many, many months. May be I should reduce amount, though it was just a spoon/day/every day. The statines really gave me a blasting headache. My house doc said migraine, maybe correct but due to statines. I had to check it out myself, not taking the statines. When for me the coin dropped, medicine and headache and tried, I could tell my doctor. The headache came after longer time of statines (half a year), but had in meantime other weird things popping up. The specialist gave me other medicines, but all statines ! Guess he was doing a list. The last statine was the worst, in 4 days time I had such a headache, I wanted to die. You can also have statine in red yeast rice with lovastatine (?) in it, according to wiki. Also it contains a drug and therefor forbidden by FDA, monacolin K. However its een around since 300BC. Once, I believe youtube, showed me, the oxidation of cholesterol is the problem. Of course if you reduce cholesterol, so also the amount of oxidation causing scaling in your veins will reduce. But you should have a medicine, preventing cholesterol to oxidase! Maybe there are such medicines, but they start with reducing statines. Lots of doctors say now, statines arent a good help at all. YES, I know they reduce cholesterol, but the other problems can be way bigger. As I red statines break down muscle, break down Q10 enzym in your body and can do lot more negative to your other systems of your body.

Isaan (Khonkaen) would be better. However they are going to built a new airport in Phang nga, so that would be the place? Guess all just will be better for groups like CP. Big Thai conglomerates with a monopoly on it. Maybe some big Chinese building companies profiting for building all. I wouldnt be surprised if they are already "having talks".

OPINION - The violence must stop and the hostages must be released

I dont know if im smart, maybe others think im stupid. It is just my opinion, based on what i see, hear, read or live. I can read your comment in 3 ways. -
No clue if you have conversations, you said she doenst want to learn language. Guess she knows somehow English? You are in EU, not stating country. Could it be, she is really homesick?! She misses Thailand and therefor act in this way? Also she became mother, post natal depression? IF you combine 2 together, then you have a bad situation. You dont understand and get angry on all little to bigger things, which also dont help. She could do it now even on purpose, so you divorce her and she could go back to Thailand. The kids are in between the 2 of you and are the most vulnerable in this situation. A miserable situation, you have tried to talk about all? Not easy, as she can or maybe still will not open up. Then maybe a visit to a shrink? Someone strange to whom she can spit it out.? Cant tell you what to do, you have to figure it out yourself. I can relate to your problem, but it si between you and her. Open your mind on maybe hidden issues.

Sorry to hear Britmantoo. I'll hope your recovery will go well and you will be back on your feet soon. You sure had your angel on your shoulder to prevent, maybe worse. You made quite a smack. -

xtrnuno41 replied to webfact's topic in Thailand News
All "religions" have 3 main pillars, power, greed, money. If you try to touch one of those, you are out. True democracy, communism dont exist in the real world. They are only words on a paper, in a dictionary. And god based religions arent better then any other "religion". -
Sometimes you even dont know. Hidden agendas. On youtube there is the movie "Thai Girl Talks About The Thai Girlfriend Scam" It is 10 years old. She doesnt look like a bar girl, but has 3 sponsors. One main, doing 40 kbaht/month to her and the others dipped in to 80 kbaht/month. And that is 10 years ago! In this case it is a Thai girl, but doesnt matter which nationality, they can have all hidden agendas, short time, longer time. It is a real hard thing to find "the one". Almost an utopia. Red, lived, heard, seen a lot of weird things with women.

There are many religions, not all having a "real" god. -
Live so long? Red today a "starting biker", 20 years old died (RIP) on heart attack. A person who is taking diet, his lifestyle serious and then die. There you go, you plan, you do and then ..end. Also reminds me on a college, his daughter had boyfriend (20 yo). One time the bf wasnt feeling well, went to bed and never woke up again.

Religions as motivation to rule, to indoctrinate and suppress. The worst invention made by mankind. I bet the moslims want to go back to Ottoman empire. -
Ask Noah, he lived a thousand years on which he spent 200 years building the ark. Guess after flood, at 600 years old, a lot of humping again to create mankind.

Blast from the Past - 60's, 70's, 80's,90's Music (2023)
xtrnuno41 replied to CharlieH's topic in ASEAN NOW Community Pub
That is the nicest thing about youtube, you are introduced to many unknown artists. I put some of them in here. They werent that lucky to be big, but show they do incredible performances. Also dont care how they make their music or with what, as long as it has a good music value. Ok, introducing a new one. I only knew them (think they split up, was 2 man band) as the guy bought my fathers guitar. SO we had a talk and he mentioned bands name, so checked it out. -
I have to go on what site is telling. You do get interest, as long as inflation is there. And there are 2 ways Euro and GBP. The latter has higher interest. Your money is used in investment, they give warnings, you could loose money. It is not a savings account. Blackrock is holding, managing, the investments. I red government bonds. You get interest every month, as long as interest is there and you can use your money with no hold backs or punishments. Wise has apps, cards you can use. Up till now, it is what i red and understood. But better to read yourself at Wise website, maybe you have other understandings.

Yesterday met on internet this guitar player. Brought in yahoo news and man, can he play. Finger picking style, Steve Vai, Tommy Emmanuel, Joe Bonamassa praise him for his play. Plays everything form classic, blues rock and what ever. I picked a blues demonstration of him, but on you tube you find more of him. Enjoy. -
