SWMBO on her first solo earned 312points = 39p which converts to 5.2kWh at IO rate or half a tank of hot water.....Which she uses everyday in shower anyway... :facepalm:

Ah well!. :D

53k have posted already but the 1st Dec session no points yet.
Looks like your setting the pace Yuff. :oO:

But there are a couple on here with 3 phase supplies and like to keep their cards close to their chest. ;)

The 1st Dec was double payout as it was a live session but the 5th Dec session was a test session.

Test sessions are not really needed, but there needs to be at least 2 sessions a month or else folk don't bother with it. The live session was required by the grid so the payment was larger.

That will be
40 kWh
50 kWh
80 kWh
That’s EV battery capacity.
Banked on the secret list. :praise:

My SWMBO is retiring at Xmas. :shock:

I already know what to expect as SHMBO was on furlough for over a year during COVID.

A little more energy used, but its the water usage, it was insane. And its not the loo as that uses the underground river water. Its more washing, more cleaning of house with insane quantities of hot water. :?

And if I make suggestions to reduce usage, :fight:
