Re: Speed Cameras
Then it is either not a speed camera, or it is a new type that your radar detector cannot see. I assume that you mean whatever it is, on those right angle white poles?Nothing detected as I went through (at 60KPH today ) the camera in photo 3.

Re: Speed Cameras
I will be making the journey again next weekend. I will enable the radar detector next time, and report back how many are actually active. The problem with that is that the new types of cameras do not use radar, so you would need a detector that is compatible with whatever system is being used. The...

Re: Speed Cameras
Just a word of warning to those driving south of Hua Hin. There is a fairly recent 80 kph zone on Phetkasem Road south of Rajabhakti Park near the army bases. It's only a 3/4 km stretch but as I have discovered the speed cameras are active. I have received two fine pictures of my car apparently tra...

Re: Solar power setup for your home in Thailand
For what it’s worth, the following is just my opinion. I cannot see how it is possible to calculate a ROI; there are just too many unknown variables. About the only fact that can probably be relied on is: the per unit cost of a grid supply is going to increase, and even that has its own maybe’s; but...

Re: Water tanks
Was trying to figure out how that would work too. In both houses in Bangkok, we have a check valve system installed together with the water tank. The pump is an on-demand pump, and will only work if the demand pressure is lower that the mains, and the check valves ensure I'm not pumping back into t...

Water tanks
If you have a tank and mount it above round the tank needs to have nontransparent walls in order to inhibit the growth of algae. I discovered this when I purchased a tank that looked like a DOS tank but was half the price. When it was delivered, I noticed I could see light through the walls. It did...
