Great to see! Ww are pulling 600W from the stacks and exporting 18W.
Only managed to reduce our use last time by 89%! Will try harder this time and play a different album. Fleetwood mac must have held us back!

Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
Feck, the world cup distracted me, 
offgrid now, but had to ask the permission of SWMBO as she was going to lose a few seconds of football.
She agreed for the greater good.
I might have let in 1 Wh
, but hopefully it might have been for the previous period.
Anyway I don't think there is a 1000 octopoint bonus this time
but there is a 100 point guarantee for being in the first saving session.
That also means my father who is unaware I opted him in will be guaranteed 100 points too even if he does not save anything.

Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
We've been off-grid all day, since 6:30am, and the battery is still sitting at 91% SoC as I type this. Been a cracking day for the time of year. Yesterday we struggled to generate about 1.5kWh, today it was close to 15kWh, more than enough to keep us warm etc for 24 hours. Our hot water store is fully charged, even managed to stuff a couple of kWh into the car.

Gave over for me, looks like I accidently opted in twice for my father and I didn't opt in this time at all.
No guaranteed bonus for me.

Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
Rounding errors which you wouldn't usually see? Or a little bit of internal consumption from a battery which will be recharged (at your expense) later?
2.0 kW/4.62 MWhr pa in Ripples, 4.5 kWp W-facing pv, 9.5 kWhr batt
30 solar thermal tubes, 2MWhr pa in Stockport, plus Congleton and Kinlochbervie Hydros,
Most travel by bike, walking or bus/train. Veg, fruit - and Bees!

Re: Octopus saving sessions coming 1st Nov
I should have said the supply was off after the meter. I've noticed this before when nothing is connected to it.
