  1. The name is "Totally Awesome Cleaner"
  2. There used to be a local tienda I was able to purchase this cleaner but they no longer carry it. Does anyone know where it can be purchased? I have tried a few local stores to no avail.
  3. Pure alcohol. Not rubbing alcohol. It is only 70%. See if you can locate some 99% pure.
  4. The solar system has been vastly improved lately. The inverter they had burned out from the excessive use. It was not enough to run the loads they have. A local church, Lakeside Community Fellowship, donated and installed a new inverter which can now handle their demands. Extra solar panels were donated so they are good there. They do require a battery upgrade as the old AGM batteries are not enough to get them through the night. There is also work that needs to be done to sort out the current wiring. They are currently raising funds for the battery upgrade. I am sure any donation would be appreciated.
  5. Sams club has batteries much cheaper than AutoZone. They are the LTH brand. I got mine from the autoparts store across from where the old Guadalajara pharmacy was, just before Chapala. It was not and LTH but has been working great.
  6. I did a search for renovation contractors. Most posts I found were several years old. Currently, who are the more reliable contractors? English not required. Thanks
  7. What is the cheapest way to send monies north from a Mexican bank to a USA bank? I normally use Wise to send south but can not go the other way.
  8. Thanks for all the suggestions. I will pass the information along.
  9. Does anyone know of a good physio that does house calls? This is mainly to strengthen lower body and resolve balance issue. Thanks
  10. It looks like a connection issue with either your phone or modem. Restart the modem and see if the wifi reappears. If it doesn't restart you phone and check again. This may help point to where the issue lay.
  11. This is what we are trying to determine. As we will likely be here pretty much full time would it even be possible to stay as Residents for tax purposes. Also, what are the long and short term pros and cons to each option.
  12. Can anyone recommend a good account lakeside that can handle our Canadian tax returns? Also, to give us recommendations on tax status. For 2021 we are ok to file as residents of Canada but 2022 is going to pose many more questions.
  13. In general, a wired connection is superior to a wifi connection. Cat5e cabling, which has been in use for many years, is capable of Gig speeds. You will not see those kinds of speeds on wifi unless you have the latest technology running with zero interference, which is not likely. The firestick may have limitations on the wired connection.
  14. What country is the laptop being shipped from? Do not assume everything from amazon.com is coming from the USA. This may also be why you are not being charged USA taxes.
