I'm expecting a PB. :twisted:
I used 32.53kWh in the 3 hrs of the in day adjustment period.
52,312 points for the 23rd, a slight improvement on my previous PB of 528 points. :twisted:
I wasn’t home on the 23rd, so couldn’t increase usage other than heating and battery charging.
On the 24th I was home for about half the session and was charging the car, batteries etc along with heating
Got up to 19kwh, but overall think it was similar usage to the 3 hr period on the 23rd

They paid above rate for 500MW of emergency interconnect the saving sessions are not a true consideration.

PB is 6664 on 12/12/2022 and that was without knowing about the 3 hours before thing

Had the car charging, battery charging, ASHP heating in the 12:30 - 15:30 slot on 24/01!

Hoping for a good return, think we "used/stored" about 25Kw

Remember the 24th was for 1.5 hrs as well. :D :D

The 18th Jan was a cold typical day at Nowty Towers WITHOUT a Saving Session.

The 23rd Jan was a cold typical day at Nowty Towers WITH a Saving Session.
Note - Grid power shifted from cheap slot to "in day adjustment" slot.

That's why you need the 100A DNO fuse upgrade.
