Not really no. The argument is because drivers don't drive at 30 in a 30, they tend to be going much faster. So if they set the limit to 20, the driver is likely to be going less than 30 which will save lives. The reason why the speed limit is 30 is that its the golden speed when it comes to...

34.5 today, the power was off for part of the day so lost a bit of production.

They also get the alleged £19bn worth of assets, you cant have your cake and eat it. If you let the company go bust, its assets will be broken up and sold to the highest bidder, that money goes to pay back creditors and if there is anything left, investors. Given what Themes Water actually is...

Facebook marketplace is basically the default. You can’t sell any fish on there though.

Hypervolt have also been very late with some of their feature roll outs so I’ve been adding a bit of ‘Elon’ time to it. My hypervolt is V2 as well. I have IO set up on my car (Tesla) and to get round that issue where the car starts charging on peak rate I just have a schedule set in the car...

In all honesty, the most reliable option not non-nerds is to split the power supply just after the meter and connecting the charger in there. You’d put the battery CT on the house side so it can’t see the power draw of the EV charger, happy days. The main issue is getting a spark in to deal...

End of the year for hypervolt, bear in mind it’s only April!

Well it’s not implemented yet so I’d say yes. I suspect GivEnergy might suggest the GivEnergy EV charger ;) The battery issue is the same across the board and can be made worse if you are using a hybrid inverter. Unless the two things can talk to each other or you wire in the charger so the...

Do because they don’t all come with one. Likewise not all come with a type 2 cable either for public chargers but being realistic, you’ll probably not use it much. Edit: second a Zappi charger, in terms of functionality it’s probably the best on the market. It’s only downside is it looks like...

38.6 today despite a lot of passing cloud.

In a further update to my GivTCP saga, last night I mentioned that I had got GivTCP working but nothing was showing up in MQTT. Randomly today all the devices connected, passed one packet of data and disconnected again. Something very funky is going on here. I might just nuke it and start...

The boiler has to go under the BUS grant scheme. The only reason to go down the hybrid route is that your heat loss is so high, it couldn’t be covered by a heat pump (or multiple) or there was insufficient power to install a high enough power heat pump. Why would you want it to stay? If the...

I’ve also been negative every day in April. I was negative most days of March also.

If it’s direct in ground they’ll want to put poles in to deliver it. Did you see the people on the news a few weeks ago setting up protests and blocking the installation of poles to deliver FTTP? Good luck getting your FTTP is all I’ll say.

https://forums.overclockers.co.uk/threads/heat-pumps-anyone-have-one-thought-about-it.18977253/ Unfortunately it degrades into a similar conversation you get in this thread at times. If you are interested, have a look at the heat geek you tube channel and website for background information...

Agile it’s looking great at the moment, I’m just a bit lazy to manage it to get the most out of it so I’ll probably stick with IoG which is close enough, although Eon has slightly better rates at the moment. In terms of insulation it’s good but not the best. The house is 20 years old so has...

Heat pump ;) The running costs should be comparable to a well set up modern gas boiler when paying the price cap for electricity. The cost to install was lower than replacing my 20 year old gas system thanks to grants. With my solar and battery storage set up, my energy supplier is paying...

We are taking fully electric to the next level this week - the gas pipe got capped off today and the trades are in ripping out the boiler. The caravan isn’t all electric yet though!

I’ve got an unraid NAS I could host it on within a VM if push came to shove. Edit: its got plenty of spark resources it’s running on a 6 core 5820k and has 16gb ram.

SD card - given the issues I am having, a dodgy SD card is on the list of things to check....
