Since you are possibly going to add solar at some point, I'd be looking at one of the many on/off grid hybrid inverters.
We have three Deye SUN-5K-SG03LP1-EU 5kW units running in parallel, you would only need one. Should be 35-40k Baht on Lazada, then wait for payday or 11/11 vouchers for further discount.
Are you actually using a full 4-6kW all the time? That's a lot of energy and would need a fair size battery pack. For example, our 14kWh Lithium packs cost about 60,000 Baht. You might save some $$$ by going for lead-acid batteries since they'll be running in "standby" most of the time.
Can you do a power audit of what you actually need to be running, that would allow you to choose an inverter without going crazy.
Also, how many kWh you use during the time when the power might be off. Read your meter at about the time power failures occur and again after 6 hours. That will allow you to size your battery pack.
Solar panels are cheap, there's really no reason not to add them if you have space, they will save you money all the time the sun is shining 🙂
Let us not focus too much on these workers, those who were employing them and any who arranged to transport them are culpable. I thought there were plenty of ways foreign labour could be employed here, they seem to be everywhere.
Always more and more ... they do not know the word " enough " ...
Money , money is all they think about ...
But overcrowding leads to a decline in the quality of a holiday of a normal tourist .
May be , one day , Locals have enough and start to protest against overtourism , just as in Spain ...?
Phuket became a " No Go " zone already .
