Octopoints

I'm slowly getting more and more features turned on in my Octopus app. Is anyone else as frustrated by Octopus using a multiple of 8 of Octopoints -> £ with Octopoints as I am? The government has U-turned on
imperial measurements being imposed in the UK. Maybe we can try and push for a power of 10 common multiple for a conversion between Octopoints and £.

I like the 8-octopoints to a penny conversion. It is quirky and fun.
£70 in a few weeks isn't bad either!

There is
precedent of decimal though.

Isn't it something to do with how many arms an octopus has, and that they're called octopoints?

Decent start here as well, hoping to do better next year

Wow, very nice. The most I'll be able to export and save on use will be 8kW per hour. I'm definitely buying a 15kvA unit when I need to replace the current one. I don't think I'll manage much this year as I'm expecting it to take a while to get the export MPAN sorted out.
