Sorry it’s the live from inverter (to consumer unit) so AC. Can be wired into zappi or wirelessly (if the run is awkward). In the set up of zappi mark that input as generation as you’ll see a separate source in the myenergi app. Just clouded over here: the reading from the ct clap to what...

you can then get live and historical data for generation via solidcloud app and website.. pretty standard stuff on there tbh. you might also get that data from the a 'smart' EVSE.. the zappi for example can have a CT clamp wired (or wirelessly with a Harvi) to the PV live wire so you get all...

Ive got a solis inverter (not through choice as it was pre-installed in the new build). whilst when operating its fine but I had a period a year ago it developed a fault. there is a long warranty but trying to get a hold of someone is painful.. its non-uk based and all done via email/tickets...

octopus pay in ‘octopoints’ for the saving sessions. It’s 800 points = £1. Usually, the saving sessions are at 1800 points per kWh saved. (There was a couple of sessions last year where they gave 3200 points.) So if your usual usage at the time of the session was say 1kWH but during the session...

edit: sorry this turned into a long old post! worth having a watch on YouTube of this channel.. keeps it pretty simple and great to get your head around how it all works, how to size your system, ac/dc coupled systems, pros and cons etc.. https://www.youtube.com/@GaryDoesSolar I moved into a...

having a quick google (these damn names Don’t make it easy!) but it looks like those on Go can get export lite at 8p/kwh export. on intelligent go you can get the 15p tariff. 😮‍💨 https://octopus.energy/help-and-faqs/articles/can-i-still-export-my-energy-if-i-m-on-an-ev-tariff/ intelligent go...

As @n3ophyte said it’s possible and allowed by octopus. Was a good few months ago they allowed you to be on the export tariff. Mentioned here: https://octopus.energy/blog/outgoing-faqs/#goandoutgoing

exactly this from me too. I fill our battery storage off-peak at 7.5p and that gets us through the majority of the day which would have been at peak rate. Also means my solar excess gets sold at 15p rather than storing it (where I use the energy bought at 7.5p!) OI works well for us and saved a...

just had another email pop up from Octopus showing prices changes to OI. the peak rate coming down ~3p, off-peak still the same.. standing charge up 10p! .

had an email from Octopus about the prices dropping from April but this doesn't seem to apply to the Intelligent Go but rather those on flexible and fixed. the only price change it showed me was gas unit prices dropping 1.5p

hopefully the weather is nice as there are viewing platforms to go out on for a better view.... it was tipping it down when I went and the view from the restaurant area was limited.. plus the missus couldn't tell which car I was in so got lots of photo's of other people! :D

if the pork belly is still on the lunch menu then go for that! ;) it's good that you've had the car a little while before you go.. as others have said, going prior to receiving my Taycan, I feel now I could have pushed on a lot more if I were to go again. @tylerdurden I think you can take 1...

Just saw a tweet from our local council saying they’ve installed Tesla chargers in the civic centre car park.. They look like v4s too! shame it’s too close to home to ever need them 😁...

it sounds like you have octopus intelligent (OI) integrated with the car. Which EVSE do you have? If it is one which supports direct integration (ohme, myenergi Zappi or Wallbox) then you can directly integrate with that rather than the car. if you can do this, it means OI won’t be messing...

As you're aware the sal sac schemes are generally for new cars, but saying that, earlier this year Octopus announced a scheme with used: https://www.fleetnews.co.uk/news/latest-fleet-news/electric-fleet-news/2023/07/31/octopus-launches-salary-sacrifice-scheme-for-used-evs I can't say I've...

mind sharing who that was with?

fingers crossed! Mine arrived at the dealership in South London on a Tuesday and was able to collect Friday.. hopefully a quick turnaround for you if yours starts moving.

Thought yours made it into the UK? no collection arranged yet?

the 'track order' link has now vanished from my Porsche again.. lasted 12 hours! Luckily I still had the page open on the browser and a refresh still shows it available (though no way to get to if form the main page now). more importantly, refreshing the page showed my build pics!... ok a few...

so just over 2 weeks after collecting my car, I got a notification allowing me to finally track my order online and that my car is now at the final stage 5 'final steps before delivery'! it's managed to go from stage 1 to 5 with all stages starting and completing today 😂 must be a record...
