  1. there are ways to prevent electricity from being stolen by ev owners ... the risk of overloading the building’s electrical system when charging ev's can also be managed, for example, by using a building load management system ...
  2. that’s the best joke i've heard in a while … and it clearly shows you have no idea about electric cars, which makes you look really quite foolish ...
  3. can you explain why you think that way? if you live in a rural area and can install a wall charger, then you don't need a public charging station within a 200+ km radius! because you charge at home ... that's what most ev owners do anyway, 95% or more of the time ... few months ago, i did a road trip, total around 2,700 km, including a few days visiting family in a very remote rural part of isaan. i had absolutely no problem finding charging stations ...
  4. ... hope the BOT will do it ... same rights and rules for everyone ...
  5. absolutely no reason to hesitate. the ev charging networks are great and constantly expanding ... many people forget that you only need charging stations for long-distance trips ... for daily use between up to 200 - 300 km, you can charge conveniently, and easily at home ... as all of us do ...
  6. unfortunately, the safety of their children has never really been a concern for these parents ... daily life shows countless examples of this... it's more like a miracle (maybe buddha's influence) that not much more goes wrong ...
  7. as far as i remember, they only talked (not planned) about global income tax ...
  8. PSI has a called "easy plug" -in system, 880 watts for 25,900 thb ... https://www.facebook.com/psisats/videos/3086710161616461/
  9. i think you forgot to mention "she's different ..."
  10. just keep in mind, even the royal decree is getting through, the current tax law is still in place for at least till end of 2025 ... although not active enforced ...
  11. "... such rants ... " thanks for your contribution ... did you have a bad day?
  12. thanks for sharing, great and tidy setup, congratulations ... still, i have a few comments: - if you're paying around 200 baht per months for electricity during the night and on days without sunshine, that equals about 1.5 units per day. that's a very modest consumption ... also compairing to the average 24h day use of 9-10 kwh ... - your 1.66 kw peak solar system produces on average 8 kwh per day ... that sounds brilliant! (5'910 kwh : 730 days = 8.09 kwh/day) - in your ROI calculation, you use the full 8 kwh produced per day, which gives you a ROI in about 2.25 years. - how is it that every day you use exactly the same amount of electricity (for your ROI) as your solar system produces (on average 8 kwh/day)? how is it possible that there's never any surplus? do you have a disc meter that runs backwards, or are you using batteries (ESS) to store the excess? or something else? it's totally possible that i'm missing something, my apologies in advance. thanks for clearing it up.
  13. based on your data, a 2.32 kw peak system generates an average of 11.94 kw per day, which seems too high and not very realistic to me ... (i would say is more about 8-9 kw/day) your calculation assumes that every watt produced is fully used, which is quite unlikely – unless you're running a few air conditioners 24/7 ... (but in that case, the system would probably be undersized anyway). maybe some other forum members with DIY setups can share their real-world ROI numbers ... i think if someone can do it an ROI in about 5 yeas, that would be nice ... (but not 15 months or less) ...
  14. it seems like two corrupt families have turned into enemies ... if teflon toni denies anything that hun sen says, it will only backfire even more ... teflon toni can not buy hun sen .. it looks like teflon toni is finally getting what he deserves ...
  15. ... the thai police will take both, the salary increase and the bribes ... getting corruption out of the police is like trying to "remove the bar from a barlady ..." it would take much stronger (more draconian) measures to achieve the nearly impossible goal of reducing police corruption ... there's no hope that anything will truly change in our lifetime ...
  16. if an accident happen on a private road, i wonder how the insurance, the police and some other authorities (child care) will see it ... i am sure, not so easy as some an-members ...
  17. that's a good lesson for your 13-year-old, who now learns that it's okay not to follow the laws in thailand ... you're truly a valuable role model ... just wait till your child have the legal age to drive ... or is that not an option for you? what do you or your child lose?
  18. wait and see ... interesting times are coming ...
  19. hopefully finally get rid of the shinawatra family once and for all ...
  20. my daughter uses apple carplay, and i use android auto. for our "simple needs", both systems work quite ok, though there is still room for improvement in the software ... for navigation, i rely on google maps through android auto. i've been using google maps for years. i only tried the byd navigation briefly, so i can't say much about it, but i wasn’t impressed (filter / couldn't find hotels / user friendly etc). in my opinion, the byd navigation system still needs improvements before it could be a real alternative for me ... on my last road trip (around 2,800 km), i used google maps the whole time, including to find charging stations. it worked without any problems ...
  21. i've been driving the byd sealion 7 awd for a few months now. it's a great travel suv that’s also fun to drive, still loving it! but can someone explain how one of the world’s biggest car manufacturers fails to fix obvious software issues, even though features like this have been standard in competing brands for years? things like camp mode, dog mode, sentry mode, a useful energy consumption display for trip a/trip b, or a proper readout for electric secondary consumers, etc. when my car goes into "sleep mode", i can no longer connect to it with the byd app, neither via wifi nor bluetooth, even when i'm standing right next to the car. my byd dealer spent over an hour trying to fix the issue. according to a facebook user, it's a known software and possibly hardware problem, but byd thailand doesn't offer any solution ... why hasn’t byd addressed some of these issues by now? it seems they still need to learn that the customer should be king. too bad, on this point, byd gets a thumbs down from me! note: most other car brands also have unsolved issues, so byd isn’t alone in that ...
  22. where in thailand can you buy real uv-protective clothing, not fake ones?
  23. it seems like you're still in defense mode for your beloved teflon toni ...
  24. ... no matter which country i live in, i always try to follow the laws and respect the local culture and customs ... this has helped me personally to live a relax and peaceful life in thailand (20+ years) ...
