Dear friends,
I am not very technical but I have installed a few sonoff minis to turn my fan and bedside lights on.
I am now renovating my home in CM and replacing all the wiring. I want to install sonoff smart light switches throughout my house in Thailand and have already looked at the EU tx versions of 1/2 and 3 gang.
I will be installing 2.5sqmm wiring (3 cables of yellow for ground, blue for neutral and brown for live).
In the 3 bedrooms, each will have 4 down lights with 7w led lights in them, a fan and an extractor fan. I would like to install a 3 gang tx smart switch at the entrance to the room.
The issue is that I also want to have a 1 gang smart switch next to the bed to be able to turn off the 4 led lights without getting out of bed. This is called a 2-way switch I'm told. From some of my reading I think I will need to put a mini-T2 behind my 3 gang light switch in each room and then use scenes to make it work.
What do I need to do as far as wiring is concerned and do I buy the standard tx smart switches?
This is my opportunity to get it right so I would like amazing advise from this forum.
Would love some feedbackJonathan and Oum

Kata, Karon, Patong etc. are indeed all graveyards. HOWEVER.... Rawai and Nai Harn are simply bursting with life. EVERYTHING is open. In fact, we have new restaurants opening all the time. Over the Loygatong festival 2 days ago, we have thousands and thousands of people. Probably more than previous years. It seems everyone has come to our area. I am sure the northern cities will start coming alive over the next 2 years, but now everything is popping in our area NOW. Come to our daily markets, have a coffee, come for lunch or dinner and enjoy the experience. You wont feel COVID here at all except for when the 7/11 staff remind you to put on your mask. Visit Wilsons for breakfast or maybe Coffee tribe, Wecafe for great salads, Super burger at Cheers, Incredible burgers at the Green tamarin Live music at Coconut, Healthy food at Pure energy, and many many many more. We have hundreds of Thai food shops everywhere, still serving noodle soups at 50baht. A hop skip and a jump to Makro and Villa market both in Chalong. Hope to see you soon in Rawai. If you need an info call us anytime. <contact details removed>

48 minutes ago, missoura said:Littering is a pet peeve of mine here in Thailand and I will get to it in a minute. A few months back I shared a photo with my wife and asked why. She didn't know the answer and then shared it with the locals on their Line app.
Where I live in central Thailand the Thais call this the front road as it winds along the Nan River. This drop off is right down the road from me and it has been this way for years. About once year the government officials dump dirt to cover up the problem and it looks good for a while. Plus, it help covers up the trash that the locals have tossed over the side. I'm the one that mentioned it might be dangerous.
Apparently, I embarrassed someone and was soon invited to a special meeting at the village's headquarters. They filmed the meeting and I took photos. The talk was all about money. At the end of the day, the officials did install a safety barrier.
Since I shared that photo and got results, a few of the local villagers have shared some of their photos. More and more Thais are complaining about trash being dumped on the side of the road, which is a good thing...
Hi missoura,
I have never written on this forum before but felt compelled to write something here. I have been living in Phuket for 10 years. I love my life in Thailand. I completely and utterly love my Thai wife. We both are disturbed by the rubbish we find on the streets and beaches of Thailand. We pickup rubbish when ever we can and do our best to educate the importance of rubbish collection. It wasn't that long ago, maybe 20 years, when we had advertising in Australia (my birth place) teaching people not to throw rubbish out if moving cars. Australians would leave rubbish everyday. Today it's frowned upon, similar to smoking. Thai people need to be educated with public campaigns that will adjust their thinking. It will happen. Just give it time my friend. Keep up your great work. Every bit makes a difference. Great work. Forget the sarcastic comments on this forum. Let's push forward and always look at the glass being half full. I know I will.

Prominent Thai doctor says everyone will eventually catch Covid-19, we need to learn to live with it
in Thailand News

Pathway to recovery:
1. Get vaccinated. As long as people don't need to be hospitalised or die from it, we are good to go.
2. Stop reporting daily numbers and get it out of the media
3. Stop talking about it everywhere and get on with our lives.
And I happen to agree that we will all probably get covid in the future like we get the flu (which we don't report daily)
Additionally, as the years go on, we will find better medicine to deal with the "flu" which will allow faster recovery times.
And finally, don't discriminate against those that don't get the vaccine.. Freedom of choice. We will hit 70-80% anyway without them.
