Saving Sessions / Demand reduction thread

Wouldn't be surprised to see a session early next week, temps looking to drop across UK and wind supposed to drop at same time.
According to a 7 day forecast I just started following.

Start shifting that usage so you can game the system

Ive just purchase a 40kwh electric heater....as HHH says " time to play the game"

Or is it a 40kwh/h heater?

Hope he hasn't got 32amp ring mains then or they are going to be turning to liquid metal with that draw

In fact I am not sure his whole house would sustain a 40kwh/h/h heater!

I am running extension leads to my neighbours houses so they can go off grid and we only pay 1 standing charge.

 

[john_smith]

I’m running one to mine during the next -4 > -1 window.

 

[Mercenary Keyboard Warrior]

Yeah -4 to -1 I am putting a big cable reel out front with a sign for free electric

Yeah not flaming just called it for it was. But good luck to you all even those on benefits game the system from time to time.

As predicted, NSO tweeted yesterday "The ESO has issued a notification that we will warm one of our five winter contingency coal units for potential use on Tuesday 7 February."
Usually this is also when there is a high chance of a Savings session

Ah updated this morning "A further notification has been issued by the ESO this morning to warm a second coal unit to be available tomorrow, if required."

Are you just throwing food into the oven on purpose at this point?

 

[Mercenary Keyboard Warrior]

Dishwasher, tumble drier, charge batteries, washing machine, fan heater instead of GFCH
Am I missing anything?
I could do immersion I guess

Is nicehash still a thing?

NiceHash is RIP. lol.

My Sim rig pulls 600+w

I like the way bacon and pizza cooks when it's on the oven floor. Ha

This had nothing to do with you really, I was just joshing with @john_smith with regards to how much abuse he puts onto the system, I'd do this with or without your opinion on the subject matter as a bit of fun. I said the same kind of thing to MKW the other day in our Discord conversation which you won't even see!

Please don't see this as a dig at you when it's not. I have no desire to drag that debate back up again as I'm sure you don't either!

I also don't mean for this to be taken at all seriously, it's just light-hearted not judging anyone.

 

[john_smith]

I'm offended. Hahahha. You can probably hear me crying as i'm sat in Ryde at the moment.
