No, we must not acknowledge spending too much time on UTUBE. As you say yourself in the following sentence, it is full of valuable content (sometimes of the very highest standard) and it has helped me many times not only in my fields of interest but as a problem solving tool as well. It is a real blessing that so many people feel inclined to share their knowledge about anything and be it not so weird. So if you are looking for something specific you are most likely to find it ! Of course when there is a lot of sun there is shadow as well. It is up to you what you watch and what you dont. Watching for a while will get you soon a feeling for what is good and what is a pure waste of time. And many contributions are much more entertaining then any TV show I have ever watched. I would be careful with so called "news". I never even have a look at them on UTUBE. And the more technical possibilities of forgery of pictures, films and sound progress the more critical this issue becomes.

Of course you should ask the hospital which will perform the GA. In this respect I can as well not help you since I am not qualified to do that as everybody here points out as well. I would do that well before they treat you (mabe they have to order some special medicaments) and then mention it again directly to the anesthesist that will do the GA. But your post was indeed not for nothing ! You have helped ME. I have used Propofol many many times to perform a colonoscopy. The last time many years ago with Propofol - after that in Thailand only with Dormicum (no Fentanyl) but out of the cost issue and not for a medical reason ! But after that I was diagnosed with a severe cardiomyophaty (not caused by the Propofol I suppose) and now I hear from you for the first time that it might be critical to use Propofol with this precondition. As I have always loved the Propofol sedation (for a colonskopy it is not really deep so I was told) I will be very careful in the future once I would again do a colonoskopy and demand Propofol which would be due soon again. Thank you for the hint. Who knows, maybe this has even saved my life.

Too late. I reserve the international version for my next order of 5 more and then it may as well act as an connection converter. Is there a limitation as to how many of plugs may be supported ? For switching on/off and various security gimmiks like different sensors and cameras I use TAPO TP-Link which connects to a base station which then connects to the internet. What is new here is the power measurement.

I just bought 5 of these: Then all I need is the tuya application, probably an account with them and the measuring pleasure may begin.

Thank you for the education. But I am learning ! So TGSG will be my glass provider and the profiles will be imported from either Germany or Japan. And any overpriced offer for imported glass rejected. Seems I approach more and more the moment where I can order without hesitation. All I need now is the general contractor that puts all those loose ends together and seems trustworthy with some references to show me.

This is sad actually. Reminds me of the emission values of vehicles. And who would believe the fuel consumption that is printed in the high gloss documentations. On the other hand, if the laboratory conditions would be the same for each manufacturer then SEER would at least make a bit sense. I agree that it would not make sense at all if everyone might set the most favourable test conditions for his specific product. And the consumer is the silly-billy.

Why should this be ? It is direct proportional to the energy consumption under equal conditions. A higher SEER rating therefore means savings. Of course those evaporate if you run the AC longer as intended etc. But this is not the point.

You mentioned TGSG (Thai-German-Speciality-Glass) as the supplier of the windows. This sounds a bit like import. The builder showed me a picture of the insulation that he did put under our roof. Looked like a fairly thick block of some yellow material finished off by a thin layer of tinfoil. As far as the company involved are concerned I have now contact with a company called Schueco. The Managing Director is German and he was talking about the imported glass if I understood correctly. I have as well contact to a nearby local supplier who does import profiles from Japan but he was quite impresssed when I showed him your spec of glass. It appeared that he did never see anything like this. I have seen the catalogue from the Japanese profile provider. This is for sure no cheap and inferior stuff. Up to now I have no ball-park quotation whatsoever. Prime-Asia did not really react the way I would have preferred. Maybe this a heavily contested market like estate brokerage. I once sold a condo (in Switzerland) and hope to have never to do this again in my life. Guess the mafia is easy in comparison.

Here is what SEER means: https://www.hvac.com/expert-advice/what-is-seer-rating/ In short: It is a measure for the ACs efficiency. The higher the SEER value, the less energy is necessary to produce one BTU. 20 or more is excellent, 16 so la la.

This is all correct - but you forget to mention the downside: While they are more Western they are less Asian as well. I did not even feel I was in Asia while I was there - exept for the temperatures. So to say it bluntly: Why travel 10K Miles only to have more miserable food than back home (well not exactly I know, at least the beaches are really wonderful ???? Never seen such clear water before.

May I ask what company ? 4K saving per month is 48k per year. This makes 336K for the whole system (I hope incl. installation) to give the ROI you say. Indeed this would be interesting. Is it off grid as well ? At night at least 2 aircons run in our house. The Seijo Denki kind with 12000 BTU and SEER 15.4 unfortunately. The fridge which I thought takes huge amounts of energy uses but 130W. Probably per hour so 3120W per day. About the same as our Main Daikin. I am playing with the idea to install Solar just for the fridge, two washing machines and one dishwasher, which will run as well every day. But I need a knowledgeable and fair company that discusses with me everything - if possible near Pong, Chonburi as can be.

Thank you all very much by the way. ???? ☺️ ???? This is one of the most helpful threads for me ever.here on AN.

Unfortunately you may be very much correct. I have already located someone who can reinforce the ceiling insulation using foam from the inside and we are currently discussing security glass anyway which has a build in heat protection layer (if we can and want to afford it - it might be very expensive due to import from Germany - but it would be the same glass that was used to build the English Embassy in Laos. By the way, 32 degrees is not what I really hoping for. I moved here from Switzerland and at night the windows in the sleeping room were open at times. A question of the blanket (filled with real feathers). Our condo now has comfortable 24 degrees.

Where do you put the Tuya Monitor Plug if you want to measure 1. The Ceiling Mounted AC 2. The pool pumps If you wire it somehow to the brakeout box, does this not interfere with the "inspection" that might be performed by the authorities once the builder changes from Production to Permanent Tariff (if he has not done this yet).

When we enter the living room from outside without having switched on the AC, temperatures have been measured up to 45 degr. Celsius. The original Seijo Denki with 24'000 BTU had to be replaced (by us) for it did not noticeably cool the room. We moved this AC to another place in the room as backup and emergency cooler. The current Daikin Ceiling Mounted with 36kBTU is brandnew - and frankly even this one does not really cool down the temperatures as quickly as I want. After some hours of so about 24 degrees can be reached, just like I want it. Our ACs in the condo now are set to 23-24 degrees and it takes some minutes to get to this.

???? You know very well what I mean. When my exwife and me wanted to return from a disco to our hotel (distance about 200m) we were advised to take a taxi ! The Disco was an experience in itself by the way. Pitch Black inside (for a reason of course ????) and a sound like the membranes of the speakers were ripped apart while running at max volume.

I was married to a Philippina before. A total nightmare. And I know the country quite well. The food is terrible and it is dangerous. Much more than in Thailand. However if you ever want to experience a nice beach - there you have it. Go for a holiday. Best Sunsets and Sundowns ever as well. But if you think that Thailand is chaotic you did not have a taste of the Philippines. Beats everything in this regard. Now I am married since more than 17 years with an emotionally intelligent and super friendly Thai Lady which I know more than 20 years. What a difference ! P.S.: It is impossible to talk about a big group of ethnically equal persons as "friendly" or "not friendly". Everone is different. I know as well Philippinas who are gentle and kind. - like in every country in the world.

ECAS ? I guess you do not mean the "Fisheries Catch Assessment Survey Data Collection Tool" which is provided by PlayStore. Or maybe the "Electronic Course Authorization System" ? I use an Android phone. Do you have maybe a link to the correct app ? There are many ECAS out there. Try to use ECAS as a search term - you will be surprized. Thanks.

Something wrong here, but no surpize. They sold the house already to us not knowing what kind of modifications we would order after that. So I suppose this "inspection" has already taken place. I will talk to the seller which is the builder as well (as far as I understand that, this guy works with a lot of subcontractors - one for the blinds, one for the kitchen and cabinets, one for the ACs etc.) We then found out that my stepdaughter is allergic to grass. So we had to change the whole lawn to artificial grass - which was a superb idea in the end - no more maintenance at all - and it looks really good. The only drawback is that the overall cost rises and rises, but nobody does complain, it is a really nice and brandnew house equipped with top notch fixtures (exept for the ACs unfortunately).

Our electricity CONDO bill was a bit more than 11000 THB last month. And it is but a 150m2 condo. But this might have been because of the extensive use of AC. Has never been that high, normal was 7000 or even below 6000 in the past.

A fridge works on the principle of heat exchange. So if the room in which it is placed is hot then it is more difficult to add some more heat to it, which might result in inferior performance, probably overload, higher electricity bills etc. My Daikin controls as well the air moisture which is as well advantageous to have a smooth fridge operation. And on top comes if my wife is washing it is simply more pleasing in a temperature controlled environment. Therefore an AC.

Yes, they are still building something, but nearly finished. Does this mean they have a different rate ? If yes they might forget to change this to "permanent" once finished. My experience here is that you have to look after every small detail yourself to be sure. But thank you for the information. I did not know that.

Thanks for the idea but this might not look very nice. It must be somewhat high in the air, then no sun (which goe into the Solar Cells) as well. We had to extend our kitchen in the back - no idea what the builders concept was to put in a fridge. Thais seem sometime to have a very different concept as far as kitchens are concerned. Our kitchen in the country dependance is nearly 40m2, because we ordered it that way. Now we have a special room for the fridge, 2 washing machines and a dishwasher. As the fridge is in this "enclosure", this "room" must as well be cooled using an AC, but I choose a Daikin with nearly SEER 24.

I will have a look at this ECAS. Never heard of Tuya, but changing from a condo to a house brings more with it than I thought. Thanks for the suggestions.

Thanks, now I understand.
