the bad thing the viewers cannot see how great it really is the camera just does not do it justice.

There is no disputing its worth the land size sacrifice for a view like that. You could only separate that view from my cold dead hands haha. I am happy for you. Its nice to see your channel growing kuya.

Hello again. Since you say you are only about 30 minutes north of the Waltermart maybe we can meet up sometime to share a coffee and swap stories and ideas. I find your story interesting because you are so much younger than I but seeking a life here in the Philippines. Might be fun.

@@AtHomeinSubicBay-cw4ij That sounds nice! We are up in Botolan until our house is complete, with periodic check ins at the house. I would love to come check out your build, are you putting in any 110v circuits in your house? I just ordered a square d power panel and hoping the local 220v breakers will fit, so they can use the square d box instead. I can swap a kitchen receptable circuit for 110v vs the 220v. Even if my box wont work with the local breakers I can use it as a sub panel, and bayne add 100v in a dirty kitchen or something for the US appliances we have. I looked at a Koten 220v breaker and looks very close to the square d 240v breakers in the usa. I think it will fit, but maybe I am wrong.

@@amerikanophilippines So, Ian is doing all Philippine 220, but I have extensive 110 V installation. I have units I brought with me although manufactured in China really produce a pure sine wave. Things like Dyson products will not work on most the 110 v step down transformers you purchase here in Philippines. I did an earlier video about it but it could stand and update showing the devices. In my case I'll have one of these on each floor. Also I brought in a solar panel and 110 v battery generator. Bought that so I could recharge my tools or run the corded tools.

@@AtHomeinSubicBay-cw4ij That is good to know, that's why I want to install an entirely different US style breaker box (Square D), at this point though I am not sure the Koten style breakers will be compatible, but they look similar to the US style breakers. Same here, I have a skill saw, makita drills, ryobi tools, kitchen appliances, etc all from U.S This box should be here from amazon by next week. If its not compatible to be used as the house main power panel I can just use it as a sub panel and connect it to the solar, I have not figured that out yet. The mono solar panels are only 4,200php in Pampanga. We only have 5kw right now but am increasing it to 15kw, we have a hybrid inverter for when we install the power line for Zameco.

for my next lead in for Ep 53, I'll try a photo my step down 220 to 110 volt converter. I actually use it in the apartment because my 75" Samsung I shipped over from the US will only accept 110 V
