Causes of High Electricity Bills in Thai Apartments

Most aircons today are controlled by app on your phone. There there is often electricity usage stats. And if you really want to know. Install a 150 baht zigbee or WiFi electric plug that it connects to. Same for water heaters. They show live usage. Daily weekly or monthly or yearly. In the app.

This certainly is NOT in Inverter unit.

See my conversation with GG regarding EER. 3.33 per watt is pretty dismal.

There are NEW TCL 12000 BTU inverters on Lazada tomorrow for less than Bht 8000. Get one.

A bit off topic but I bought a TCL TV a few years ago and it did not last for much more than a year. So I would be wary of buying any TCL product. 

I have always done well with electrical products ie still have the same fridge freezer in the kitchen that I bought when I bought my house about 19 years ago, second washing machine, second shower unit.

Aren't air cons and showers supposed to be connected directly to fuse box, via a double pole switch? Not plugged into a Bht 150 socket.

I have a unit fitted into my fuse box which indicates overall consumption via Tuya App.

Unless you get this guy stuff, living here or anywhere else that's carries 220v, one would be guessing what really is pulling the energy.

I bought David stuff back on 2018 from Korea, and it will tell you what applicants are pulling the energy. Be it a Dryer, AC, a Fan, Iron, Electric stove, Oven, or someone stealing energy from you, etc, thereby, limiting there use to keep your energy bill down.

Also, I have found out from the Electric Company, how they calculate their monthly bill here, this too is very helpful. 

 

He has a YouTube video, and is a very very honest person.

Fingers crossed, just bought a TCL 32 as my PC monitor. Brilliant picture. Let's see if it lasts. 

Only a one year warranty from BigC. Let me know if it lasts.
