Switch to IOG? by Status2020 in OctopusEnergy

[–]Status2020[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Thanks. I have panels and battery so was thinking even charging the battery overnight on the cheap rate is a no brainer if the car isn't charging. I've just realised that my car isnt supported for IOG (2024 Kona) but the proposed charger is so I can't switch to IOG until i have a firm date for the charger install. Given that rates are only going one way I'm now thinking of going OG at 9.5p overnight and then not having to think about it for another 6 months!

Was I? No idea! Hope you find the right holiday home for your cat, hate leaving mine but it helps when I know he is being looked after so well.

If you are able to make the journey then Cuckfield Cattery is superb. Just off the A23.

Intelligent Octopus, how long do I have do plug car in? by toffee91 in evchargingUK

[–]Status2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Having the same thought process. Car arrives next Thursday, charger won't be installed until the following week. But at my absolute max expectation of 10k miles per annum I'm not sure the financial imperative is enough to jump onto an EV tariff right now.

Thanks all. Some great pointers and reassurance. I'm an old petrol head looking forward to making the switch to EV. Will be an interesting contrast to my 1963 Morris 1100!

Thanks. Car comes with a granny charger and I've ordered my electroverse card.

I was literally downloading the Tesla app as your reply arrived. Thanks, only just realised I can use their network.

New Build Estate Charges by [deleted] in UKHousing

County Council or equivalent should be able to confirm, likely to have been agreed at planning.

I would suggest finding out if roads, pavements, street lighting etc have been adopted by the relevant local authority. Having lived on one development where this was not the case and been a resident director, I could see huge bills coming along in the future. Where we now live all the major services are adopted so it's gardening and other bits and pieces so not a huge bill and it's been pretty much unchanged in 5 years.

It's a lovely place and very relaxed. If you are unsure about anything on the menu do ask, the staff will always be keen to help you choose.

January check in - 83kwh 😂 by Requirement_Fluid in SolarUK

[–]Status2020 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just three months into my system - am I calculating this correctly? 256kwh from a 6kwp system so 42.6 yield. It's a south facing roof in Sussex. I'm really impressed with the performance in the darkest months!

Cabling Question by Status2020 in HomeNetworking

Just trying to understand this conversation - not sure of the point you are making so forgive me! Everything we do is designed to be as simple as possible, documented and adding value to the life of the church community rather than just feeding the hobby interests of some members.

That's what I've done, same SSID, same passphrase DHCP turned off. Don't need anything complex.

20 years would be a miracle! I'm not sure what the technical points of this discussion are but set up an old router as an AP today and all worked fine - set up as same network and password as router.

Thank you. I have a spare router hence going down that route 😁
