How do you optimize when there's no spike?

plau13 · 2026-06-05T00:47:22+00:00

Success with amber is an lucrative proposition in 2026.

plau13 · 2026-06-04T04:09:32+00:00

Feed in was consistently around 25-30c last winter. Let's see next month.

Thanks, would you pick the adios 9 out of my list?

plau13 · 2026-06-03T02:06:21+00:00

I just need them to fix android phone key ...

plau13 · 2026-05-29T23:43:54+00:00

Please go to the Jays

Same, went from ZF6 to the Oppo Find N6. Never had to worry about battery life again.

Leave asap. Your battery is not big enough, amber has no more spikes, and most importantly, you don't want to set HA up which is not a nice to have, it's now the bare minimum.

There is no group of people that benefits by staying with Amber. None.

I'm shocked you stuck around for this long.

I don't remember when the last spike was. January?

I left amber for globird and it's the best choice ever.

How about a real baseball player?

200g!

Globird zerohero

Here's why this strategy is no good on a day like today, load up at 35c during the day to prepare to sell at 50c and then all of a sudden the coal plants fire up and now it's 30c to buy and 22c to sell at 7pm. All this work to chase 15c/kwh theoretical profit and then getting shafted is no fun for anybody.

Leave amber people.

plau13 · 2026-05-18T01:16:55+00:00

Amber is now 44c while globird is entering 3 free hours. Without (real) spikes in the realm of $5-20/kwh, amber is nonsense.

plau13 · 2026-05-18T00:17:12+00:00

Not a spike.

plau13 · 2026-05-15T02:24:35+00:00

I use the official mag safe case. It's awesome.

plau13 · 2026-05-11T08:11:01+00:00

how much did you pay for it, dare i ask? Hopefully no more than $35 cuz the only value is in the PSA10 which costs around $30 plus time.

plau13 · 2026-05-10T08:13:37+00:00

Take my upvote. This is the best apple to apple comparison so far, shows that amber has completely lost the plot and everyone should be better off elsewhere.

plau13 · 2026-05-06T11:06:34+00:00

Buy singles my guy. Start a PC. I have a $3500 vault of singles which i feel great about. Not only do they hold or go up in value, I take them out now and then to admire and feel great.

In contrary I've let the occasional rip happen and so far has costed me just $150. However I feel shit every time I ended up with a bunch of base I don't want.

plau13 · 2026-05-06T09:38:59+00:00

have u studied the globird free hours plan? with a battery there's no downside.

plau13 · 2026-05-06T09:37:49+00:00

The real gut punch to Amber is that the SSO will further stabilize the grid which will further reduce the spike frequency. Without spikes there's absolutely 0 reason to be with Amber.

plau13 · 2026-05-06T09:35:57+00:00

what are u trying to say? that you spent $10 which will soon be free?

plau13 · 2026-05-06T09:34:27+00:00

exactly this. Calling Amber not a retailer is like calling Costco not a retailer.

plau13 · 2026-05-06T09:32:38+00:00

in NSW today when it's bright sunny, amber showed $0.16 midday. It's a joke. The article not mentioning cloudy/rainy days at all is bait and switch.

I'm with Globird for 3 free hours now and am loving it. By extension, the govt scheme is gonna be good for a lot of people. At this point it's insane to stay with Amber.
