I don't think we can call ourselves sponges... More like ultra heliophobic!

.4 here. Savage day. Fortunately we have been out most of the day and managed to grab food without needing to cook. Only used 6.3 from the battery so it's still + 50% now.

11.5 for December so far first 2 days were good, but Katie is cheating 
Today is also the day I've ran out of the battery the earliest since my install in September, but this is the new norm really. By early evening it's ran low if I have no solar.

Only 8.1 for me this month! A long eight weeks or so before things start to improve.
It's funny, I never minded paying full rate 24/7 for electricity before I had solar/batteries, now it's really irritating!

Yes. I see it as a failure in management if a draw from the grid in peak.

Ah yes, I've seen that before - there was a press report about neighbours getting annoyed about an obsessed DIY solar fella doing that down South - think it was near where Ronski lives wasn't it?
