They are regional, did you apply to join? Not automatic entry even if the region is applicable.

I'll remote charge stack and hwt for tonight's power up. :xl:

It would be great if this becomes a thing as we have so many WT's in the region. A little bit like The Octopus Fan club. Greg & Co are certainly doing what they can to unlock the thwarted potential.

Pretty sure I went on the waiting list as it wasn’t available here. Not many turbines nearby :facepalm:

Worth keeping a look out for. I had no idea they were live up here. From Dec 24 I think? A random FB post from someone already in set me on the trail. It has taken about 6 weeks from applying to getting to this first session so it's not click BANG fast but it gets there. :D

Im in. Thanks to whoever ? JB? Who highlighted this a few weeks ago. :xl: :xl:

Already discharging the stack to take advantage of the extra 2 hours of charging time, due to the sun taking up most of the export currently.
Wish that second charger had not been delayed. 🙄
