that's a good one .... immigration likes to handle things as difficult as possible ... some additional documents every year ... many years ago immigration was already demanding a tax clearance ... immigration is involved to confirm the home address for driver license ... etc i hope it will not happen, but it would be the easiest way for TRD to enforce the new tax rules ....

your advice for the original poster is five years too late ...

as far as i know, there's still an unclear mystery about the truth. a rumor from 20 years ago suggested yingluck might be his daughter! but a true fact is, the whole shinawatra clan is a dishonest and deceitful group of people ...

an other video about the sealion 7, this time from teslabjorn ...

this is the video from the data shared by mistral53 ... it's in thai with english subtitles ...

please show where an ev owner claims their new ev holds its value! you made up this claim yourself, didn’t you? and please show us that new ice cars hold their value... neither a new ice car nor a new ev will hold its value. this topic has already been discussed in detail countless times ... anyway, back to the op ... the second-hand market for ev's (and ice cars) is a buyer’s market ... as far as i know, the neta v is an economical, small, and simply equipped ev that makes perfect sense for daily city driving ...

i'm not entirely sure about that ... just thinking out loud and playing numbers : if from around 300,000 foreign tax residents, and only 10% of them pay taxes an average of 50,000 thb annually, this would result in a total of 30,000 x 50,000 thb = 1,500,000,000 thb ... which could be a solid foundation to further strengthen tax regulations ... however, we don't really know how the TRD views this or whether there is an other long-term plan in place ...

my car i ordered 3 weeks ago ...

with a budget of 20k, survival is possible, but not a desent living! and all of this without insurance, unexpected costs, travel, entertainment, comforts, etc. no thank you!

there will be only a very smal difference/improvement! but it also depends on factors such as walls directly exposed to the sun, overhangs, building orientation, etc. the windows, which transfer heat indoors, will remain a weak point ... financially, the effort to improve insulation with pu panels is hardly worthwhile, except for aesthetic enhancement (e.g., cracks in the exterior walls etc).

i haven’t a quotation yet, but i estimate "my setup" will cost around 17k to 20k ... i'm not sure when i got my car; i think it might be next year as well, so i'm not in a hurry to install the wall charger ...

thank you once again for your consistently helpful support ... i hope you don't mind if i maybe copy your clean and neat setup ...

i came close to buying a bev (volvo, hyundain or zeekr) several times over the past two years. during this time, i’ve learned a lot about bev's, and now the moment has finally arrived to say goodbye “for good” to the ice world i’ve ordered the byd sealion 7 performance. the issue i had with limited headroom was resolved during the test drive by adjusting the steering wheel, which let me shift my seating position further back ... so far so good!

thank you very much for the detailed answers, i truly appreciate your help ... motdaeng

a bev is ordered, i sold my ice car yesterday ... for now i'm dependent on my wife's car ... :-( i have some questions with the installation of a wall charger. i trust the expertise of some forum members more than most electricians here in thailand: - what cable dimensions for L ...... mm2, N ...... mm2, G ...... mm2 are needed? (total cable length approx. 15 meters) - when adding a new schneider breaker 40a to the existing consumer unit, do i need an another safty breaker (40 a ?) next to the wallbox? or would an on/off switch make sense, or be ok? what type of switch would you recommend? - if i want to monitor the kwh going into the wall charger, what's a simple solution? is maybe a breaker with monitoring mode available, that can be installed in the existing consumer unit? thanks a lot for your help, input, and for sharing your experiences, motdaeng! the "diagram" below shows the existing electrical installation and the new setup for the wall charger ...

that doesn't look right ... ... can you share the forum (facebook?) link ... thanks ....

i was originally planning to buy the ioniq 6, but after a thorough review, i decided against it: the nearest hyundai dealer is a 7-hour round trip from me, and compared to other ev manufacturers, hyundai's commitment to the thai market seems rather modest. additionally, i prefer (if possible) not to buy a bev with an mnc battery ...

what are the advantages of a fixed wall charger costing 30k-50k thb compared to a mobile charger (e.g., feyree 32a 7kw, around 6k thb)? for my needs, 7kw will be enough, and i won't need the charger for on-the-go use. the feyree also comes with a user app. so why spend significantly more on a wall box? thanks for any feedback, motdaeng! video is in thai ....

i have a digital meter 5/100a with some empty slots available for additional breakers. there are no 3-phase motors, only a water pump for the garden, 3 air conditioners, 3 water heaters (4 kw for the shower and 6 kw for the kitchen), an oven, and other appliances. my average electric bill is around 700 thb per month (approximately 175 kwh). i think it would be difficult to balance the 3 phases. or do i miss something? (i must admit, it would have been easier if i had only a single-phase house connection ...)

do i understand correctly that a 7kw/32a charger (single-phase) can be connected to a 3-phase main circuit box without any issues or drawbacks? of course, it would need to be connected to the phase with the lighter load, right?

thanks for sharing! here in thailand, we’ll likely see truly new battery technology in cars priced under 1 million baht within 3 to 5 years. i wouldn’t get too excited just yet, though. and in about 5 years, solid-state batteries might finally hit the market. interesting times ahead!

i am not sure if you really mean that, or if it’s sarcasm ...

according to my byd seller, the deposit of 10k for the sl7 is full refunded if you change your mind ... why not order the sl7 premium before dec 10, and to get a test drive as soon as available ...

i got an "ok" offer from byd for my 11 years old isuzu ... if i do selling the car private (haven't decided yet) i will get probably 30-50k more ...

... my first thought was, i feel sorry for the two children ... hard to imagine growing up as a child in such circumstances ...
