Looks like Krathing Lai Beach near to the coastguard station.

Be aware that the roof structure might not be up to adding much more load. Reducing emissivity is very effective and might be a lightweight cheap solution if it can be made to look tidy. Material with shiny side facing into the room achieves this.

Looking at even the lowest compressive strength value of AAC blocks available in Thailand, probably no when considering your light roof load. But to keep everyone's nerves in check and avoid having to form columns, you could set two readily available precast columns into your slab to form the corners then fill in with lightweight blocks. Photo of precast columns. Or, keeping to the no column theme, consider the same method as our work sheds which were constructed on rafts using hollow blocks and bars in vertical downpours. Bit of an overkill for a 4x4 extension though. Photo shows start of our smaller shed using 150mm blocks. The larger shed 8x20M uses 200mm blocks.

I seek a lesson. A little reading at the UK Forterra (block manufacturer) website shows their lightweight block includes autoclave time in the manufacturing process. What is the difference between the Thai autoclaved block and the UK autoclaved block? Compressive strength ratings are similar for the various standards available in each country. Laying of these blocks also varies between countries, with some using a glue mix and others standard mortar mix bed on walls that appear to be carrying a second floor load. I include video showing the UK method of regular mortar bed.

Interesting because triacs are born leaky. Some triac failure conditions in air conditioner fan control = unacceptable leakage, half wave, short or open. Fail closed = common. Leaky triacs available upon request, shipping negotiable.

The indoor unit fan not stopping when off button pressed is a common fault on AC's that electronically switch the fan using a triac (electronic switch). The triac becomes leaky or fails completely resulting in a constant connection from power line to fan motor. The usual fix is to replace the control board or in some cases the board is taken away for component level repair. The average cost of Samsung control boards is around 1800 Baht plus how much the install throws on top for the service. Its a good idea to disconnect AC's in rooms that are not used for long periods ideally via a double pole local isolator. This isolation takes away the standby power consumption and limits electronic damage from line spikes and surges.

You would get the performance of an electric motor, and the convenience of an ICE along with the series connection losses. Any disadvantages or inefficiencies in the diesel electric system are in many applications far outweighed by the fact that electric motors can deliver very high torque on demand (to multiple axles if required) without the need for complex gearbox and clutch arrangements. Applying this series technology to cars and adding a battery raises some efficiency questions around the regenerative systems being capable of compensating for efficiency losses during all driving conditions. A series connected hybrid car would be fantastic if it continually travelled uphill unloaded and back down with a full load.

Restricted air flow or fan speed problem, get it serviced ASAP.

According to our in house guru there are several variations of the Mitsubishi single phase motor with two capacitors. The video below should provide clues to how your version is wired. The Mitsubishi Super Line series have dual voltage (220/380) 3 phase variants in the same frame type which would be worth investigating if a change to 3 phase is preferred.

To try the VFD with capacitors in place, simply connect the existing motor supply terminals to V and U on the VFD leaving W not connected. Trying without the capacitors will require you making a sketch of the motor circuit then wiring without capacitors and centrifugal switch. Even though U1 U2 Z1 Z2 are labelled in the terminal box, some motors wire the centrifugal switch back in the motor case and not at the terminal box so its important to trace and sketch the component connections. There will be a cover near or at the rear of the motor to locate the centrifugal switch. If you want to skip using your existing motor, 220V 1.1Kw three phase motors with 90L B3 frame are readily available. Having three balanced windings in the rotation really is the best and most efficient way to go.

Perfect....

That question would be best put to a behavioural psychologist.

It's an interesting topic. There has been much discussion about the efficiency of series hybrid (train locomotive style) compared to a parallel system where combustion engine and electric motor are mechanically connected to the final drive. The Edison Motors story and their diesel electric truck is a good example of where efficiency arguments have been started. There is a lot of misunderstanding and twisted facts surrounding the Nissan E-Power system. I guess most of this comes from the army of online motoring journalists. A tear-down video is the best way to understand how this system works and why there are many questions raised about its efficiency and energy losses through the various power stages.

The OP might be confused when opening the motor because the spec plate mentions separate start run capacitors. There will be a switch facility somewhere on the motor. Not a problem trying a VFD on this motor but best he is aware of the increased complexity under the covers. Option 1 Option 2

Numchai Electrical Naklua were holding stock of Philips electronic 220-12V transformers end of last year. https://www.google.com/maps/place/12%C2%B058'16.6%22N+100%C2%B054'15.4%22E/@12.9712753,100.9036293,19z/data=!3m1!4b1!4m4!3m3!8m2!3d12.971274!4d100.904273?entry=ttu If above has no stock alternatives below.

How could an AC air compressor blow up and catch fire in a room that's not occupied. Maybe a staff member left the AC switched on. Clue - A housekeeper in the building said she heard a loud explosion. If an AC compressor suffers from extreme overheating there's a chance it will vent or explode. What happens to the hot oil and surrounding materials is up to the gods.

2hp brushless DC motor/pump with mppt controller, no battery required electronic controller handles the start load.

Approx cost excluding panels 12-14k Baht.

The book burnings were started by the German Students Union who wanted to remove any literature that was thought to be leading Germans astray. To say the Nazis did not burn Trans books is far fetched to say the least. I think its reasonably safe to say some of Magnus Hirschfeld's transgender health care literature went on the fire when book burnings began at the Institute Of Sex Research. The Twelve Theses were issued to purify the German language and remove any literature influenced by the Jews.

Some of the brass faucet inserts in areas that use our well water have suffered from dezincification which causes the insert body to become brittle and fail. The solution was to replace these inserts with stainless steel. Below photo shows a brass insert that has become brittle and cracked alongside a stainless steel replacement from China. We have machined down the spindle of the replacement to fit the faucet lever. It can be difficult finding inserts that are an exact match.

Ouch!

Now there's a point worth noting in our entertaining EV topics.

And if bugs remain in software the right set of events can lead to failure. Electrically, ICE vehicles have the ABS pump and control module to handle. EV's throw regenerative braking into the same mix adding one more control function to the braking system logic.

Easy now, the confused emojis are already running rife. You got to keep it real simple.

OP, until a lot more water has passed under the bridge you are no going to get solid answers about the durability of Chinese EV's or other important factors to consider when purchasing a new vehicle. Our house masters sister has recently moved from Honda Jazz to MG4 and I know for sure her decision was based more on the cars looks and electronic trinkets rather than its ability to replace her Jazz. A YouTube influencer provided the killer sales pitch. She likes the car a lot but being a worrier admits the thought of not having enough charge to complete a journey and being unable to find a charger might never go away. Her stress levels were not helped when owner of the excavator sales and service next door to us jokingly asked her to park it on the other side of our compound away from his stock. The brother in law then went in for the kill by saying it would be best left in the street well away from our masters wooden house. All those nasty Tube videos putting ideas into people heads. An EV service industry is already developing outside of the main dealers which might be good news for those concerned about affordable support for ageing EV's. We need to see more tear-downs and feedback from those repairing these Chinese masterpieces. Just for fun …
