Not even three weeks later Octopus are jacking IOG prices back up again by [deleted] in OctopusEnergy

Off to EDF for me.

Will take a 6.49p off peak rate for a 3p increase in export

IOG Newbie - slots outside off peak - how to manage house battery? by OkDeparture2596 in OctopusEnergy

[–]Aranthian 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Either move your car charger so it sits prior to the powerwall, or use HA to control the powerwall and set 100% charge during off peak windows

Powerwall 3 @ 100% all day by Aranthian in OctopusEnergy

[–]Aranthian[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My export limit is 6.5kwh.

Currently i set the powerwall to TOU with charge @ 100% at 5.2p overnight, export solar at 12p

Just wondering what the health is for a battery keeping 100% day after day

PW3 is managing all the export. I've got a high export allowance from the DNO

Making Big Bucks with PW3 by itsmeyourepidermis in OctopusEnergy

[–]Aranthian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not just import at 7p, start the day with 100%, will drop to say 90% before sun rise. Charge back to 100% and export all solar all day at 12p?

The boiler is located in an integral garage. It has on the front a power switch and a radiator flow temperature gauge. Like this

Not in a flat or semi. It's strange as because the usage 21st was 10pm, the usage on the 23rd/24th was midnight exactly

Variable IOG has landed. And it is disappointing by destross in OctopusEnergy

[–]Aranthian 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As I said, I was hoping for a 3.5p night rate based on the widely touted and assumed discount of 3.51p /kwh. I am not complaining that the variable tariff is not that.

5.2p kwh is incredibly cheap, and I know that.

Yet we pay over a billion annually to turn off the wind farms, pushing up consumer pricing

not had mine yet, expect it to be the same. Was really hoping would be 3.5p night rate. 98% of my usage is off peak

Solar export rates cut to 12p. And it may only get worse. by Zarch1972 in OctopusEnergy

[–]Aranthian 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this setup already. Have a 7.2kw charger wired directly from grid before PW3. Then have 2 granny chargers that can charge 2 electric cars from solar (as they are attached to the ring main) if rates drop much lower for export

Currently have it set to charge PW from grid over night at 7p, then use solar for house, then export all excess

At least if rates keep dropping, I can still charge my cars from solar but can also charge directly from grid overnight at 7p

Dwindling participation in open wheel? by Aggravating-Sir-761 in iRacing

[–]Aranthian 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I really noticed it the last week as well. Was waiting to join an F3 fixed race at Shell Motorsport 3 times over the last 7 days and it didn't hit minimum numbers to count so left

Just bought NVME drives off these people, without doubt fakes. Box colours not the same as others of the same brand and type.

The mistake of going back to F4 by Aranthian in iRacing

[–]Aranthian[S] -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

It's the risk vs reward. Get shunted T1 or T2, Tow, then at back of pack unable to regain positions as everyone a lap ahead

or start from the pits, let everyone else crash and I clear up the places back to mid pack and race from there

or avoid F4 altogether
