  1. This great! I used to neatly sort our house trash in the past 10 years. trash collectors in Bangkok always appreciated it. The organics went to the soil as food for the worms... Still doing that when in Bangkok. Here in the middle of nowhere, we just burn everything, including plastics. Cant give a damn anymore really, everyone in the village does the burning too. The collection from gov stopped years ago. So we just burn at night once or twice a week, everything, all plastics. at night is easier to hide, never got fined. Only the organic waste goes to the bushes in the backyard, food for the the water monitors around.
  2. Nice! you can even wash it yourself. unfortunately my setup in Bangkok house has to be in the roof. It also helped a lot getting house 2nd floor cooler. Now, on my new house in the country side I will also do it in the roof but it will be a flat concrete roof, so I can wash it myself. still 2 years before the house is built. I am also considering potentially doing it on the Garage roof, I will have a detached garage and storage room on the side. Actually after I writing it, that makes even more sense now to put on garage. Let's see...
  3. no way I'd do it myself. even thou I have the full knowledge of it. I could definitely do it on a smaller scale if not on a modern house roof with 2 guys helping me. - If you are planing to do on-grid solar setup for your house, and looking to sell back to the grid, then get a reputable Vendor to do it. - If you know electric, you want something small and off-grid and you have a few electricians to help you, then yeah you can do it. unless you are expert like the other guys posting in this forum, just hire. my house setup was 6 guys working on it, took almost whole day. they started with 1. Roof rails, drill holes in the roof, attach rails 2. Attach panels 3. Wiring, and conduits 4. Dedicated Grounding rod (I now have 3 ground rods in my house, the more the better: built-in the House, EV chargers, Solar) 5. panels, inverter, meter. and of course, they left many holes not fully closed in roof, normal in Thailand that 99% of engineers cannot finish the job, always leave something undone or half done
  4. That's another reason I went for Solar on my Roof side that bothers me the most with the heat. It's so much cooler now that side of the house.
  5. I got a 5kW setup and paid roughly 210,000 baht. Without power optimizer, it would be 25K baht cheaper. - Huawei 5kW inverter (it's the best you can get in Thailand, and the Fusion solar app is pretty good) - 9 x 555watt Monocrystalline panels highest grade - 9 x power optimizer (this is optional) Batteries are super expensive here, unless you got with an inverter that supports any battery, such as Lead acid or LifePo4 batteries. The downside of the Huawei inverter is that it only works with the Huawei LUNA batteries. It's 145,000 baht for the 7kWh LUNA battery. My electricity bill went down from 15,000 baht to less than 5,000 baht now. (I have EV cars) I sell back the excess to MEA at 2.20 Baht per kWh.
  6. The two blue pill got me laughing "hard" 😄
  7. Gold is still so useful, the second best thing you can do with your money for long term. But gold involves money, and money involves being tracked almost all times. you dont go sell some gold bars to buy a car with the cash. It's sure to be reported to the authorities. but in some countries you can already do that in Bitcoin. To buy a car with Bitcoin, the only down side is that in the Dealership records, they keep records connecting your identity to the Bitcoin address. Bitcoin is the only asset Government cannot manipulate, print notes or track people. the reason it's hard to get general public usage and acceptance. the controlling and corrupt government no way want it. Trump and Elon has a card hiding to be played later for Bitcoin, only time will tell. just wait and see.
  8. nahh, what he did was try to undercut his boss, that plan didnt go so well it seem 🤣
  9. It's quite a pain to get it approved. It took almost a year for MEA to get things right with me, after 10 months of waiting, they installed the wrong meter, they fined me 2,000 baht for sending electricity to the grid with wrong meter, then they realized it was wrong meter. They changed meter to the final correct one and I still lost 2000 baht 😄 TiT. 1 year later I can now sell my excess for 2.2 THB still a good deal since I break even in 4 years only. Anyways, I can only give an estimated guess: because they want to ensure safety of the solar installation since most setups will be on-grid, and the workers need a tip to do their job. Off-grid setups also need inspection, although anything over 15kW is almost always going to be on-grid. in the small town here in south some new hospital have setup a massive 300kW setup on the parking lot roof, SMART!
  10. Did I read it right? So, this one guy out of the 5 was on the inside as an informant for the police, but then he also got arrested the same as the others 🤣 🤣 🤣 Dang! Who would it be from the 5? 🤪
  11. Muay Thai is an awesome sport, it's my 2nd favorite to jiu-jitsu. Age doesnt matter, you can start any age, just go slowly dont compete. I have competed in jj but not anymore. competitions can be dangerous if you are not prepared,. To compete, you need is a very strong core around the ribs to engulf your core, that takes 5-10 years to develop.
  12. I've got more infographics: https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1KSAp3qyhU/
  13. Only a TESLA fanatic or a Musk lover would buy it for nearly twice the cost of the Seal.
  14. Everyone is dropping their prices once the Chinese have arrived 😄 hahaha
  15. Glad to have liquidated all my TSLA shares 😄 would be a dumb if I had done the same for BYD, once I saw their crazy expansion plans. Last year I used to see a lot of Teslas around where I live and near the kids schools, however after BYD Seal and Sealion 6/7 came, and the other brands, it was game over for Tesla here. hardly see any new Tesla, if any. BYD and the other Chinese brands is changing the EV market completely. Look at all the other car makers reducing their prices like crazy just to stay afloat: Mitsubishi, Toyota, MG, GWM, Ford, suzuki, Hyundai, Kia. Who can compete with the BYD M6 now at that crazy price? Just watch and see a bloodshed coming soon for car makers. Who in hell would buy the Suzuki Ertiga or Swift? The Dolphin is even cheaper!
  16. Interesting! is that all stations or only some? which part of Thailand? I have never seen any station that can do more than 80kWh, maybe because I only use travel central and southern Thailand on EV car.
  17. Sure but hat is not the reason of people choices. Charging at the MG and BYD dealers is not free and any EV Car can use it. Then the kWh fee is quite expensive compared to home charging or PTT stations. Thailand lacks big time in high power charging stations, most places and shopping malls offer that mediocre 7kW charging speed, and a few if lucky 11kW. Most chargers at gas stations are capped at 40kw or 60kw if there are 2 or more cars. the highest you can get is 80kW when nobody is charging in the station. At least we should have 100 to 150kW charging speeds available without reducing power. IF PTT had a 600kW charging capacity per station, they could have 4 slots at each 150kW or 6x100kW, that would be game changer! And buying a Tesla could be a very good deal in Thailand.
  18. Well done! The place is only better when people take justice with the own hands.
  19. Black-gill is a disease in fish caused by several interconnected factors, and nobody buys those fish. The main reason in Thailand for this to happen: Environmental pollution: Industrial waste, agricultural runoff, and urban pollution introduce chemicals and heavy metals that damage gill tissue. Low oxygen conditions: Eutrophication from excessive nutrients creates algal blooms that deplete oxygen, stressing fish and making them vulnerable to infections. Pathogens: Bacteria, fungi, and parasites that thrive in compromised water conditions can directly infect gills, causing the characteristic blackening. Climate change: Rising water temperatures in Thailand's coastal waters create favorable conditions for certain pathogens while stressing fish immune systems. Intensive aquaculture: Thailand's extensive shrimp and fish farming may contribute to water quality issues and pathogen spread.
  20. can you get those in Thailand?
  21. you mean my portable induction machine? are you looking to do it yourself?
  22. Interesting! Rice cooker, you use in warm mode and you start in cook mode? Tell me more please.
  23. just buy cheap weed,then decarb them yourself I buy those that sells like 100gr for 300 baht or something, trims, left overs, super cheap from indoors growers thou. I dont like greenhouse ones. Just put in the oven at 100C and leave it for 1 hour. Done. if you dont have oven, get one for 900 baht! I do this all the time, and just eat it with a spoon if you dont fancy making cannabutter or oil extracts. works amazing and super strong, if you over eat it you will be in serious high for a whole day!
  24. Not sure you knows or not, there is a device called Dynavap (among others) that you can smoke cannabis flowers or trims (the best way IMO) without any fumes or smoke, it's almost clear what you breath. it doesnt heat to the burning temperature as burning a joint, just high enough to vaporize the oils in terpenes giving you full flavor and effect. It's very discrete and could pass easily smoking on the street because there is nothing visible coming out of your mouth 😄 The flavors: Amazing, you get to really tell the hidden flavors of each strain, very pronounced! on of my favorite flavor is this strain called Chocolate Mint, a good indica, the chocolate and mint flavors are insanely good. The High: very fast and very strong, with 1 dynavap filled, I can do 3-4 heating sessions for full extraction. you can definitely get high with just 0.1g using a dynavap. The cost: Expensive, usually 3500 baht here, totally worth it. I have a collection of them, just amazing tech. Methods: you can use a lighter or an induction heater, i made my own induction heater with 3x 18650 batteries, super portable too! Lighter takes 6-8 seconds, induction heater just 3 seconds. It's the ultimate micro-dosing device! Pros: no bad smell, no bad breath, amazing flavors, great high, I buy cheap indoors trims, you can save a lot of money. perfect for micro-dosing. Cons: not cheap, import from USA only.
