  1. The SE app has been strange recently. SE is set to only charge from solar and not to discharge between 00:30 and 04:30 otherwise PW grabs it all . This bit works . What SE is doing now I have no idea …. I suspect some firmware balls up on SE side …
  2. I didn’t include the standing charge tbh . But all the export has mitigated that cost .
  3. Yes . I suspected issues . Now they are confirmed. Best to share the rewards and the pain ! PW charges off SE ( correct I think ) Then greedy SE steals it back - around the loop we go . Even when PW charges from 00:30 to 04:30 SE gets ready to steal !! Talking to installer as we speak ; also notice SE app doing strange ( incorrect ) things . The lovely effect of cloud apps 🙄😞
  4. Waaaaaaannnnnnnkkkkkkkeeeeerrrrsssss
  5. @SteamyTea get back in your box . I have no idea where your box is , nor what it is made of , nor it’s dimensions , nor the units to measure it in . Mr. Munt contest over 😌
  6. Guess
  7. 1 Nm
  8. My manhood is 1000000000 long nanometers ? , centimetres? , yards ? Doesn’t matter ; it’s just (expletive deleted)ing big
  9. You know it’s kWh - I just couldn’t be (expletive deleted)ed to type it . @ToughButterCup understood .
  10. Our self consumption in summer ( ignoring ev ) is around 10kw Of course due to all the usually working HA - no light etc. gets left on …
  11. So far this month zero electricity bill and that includes charging the EV. I try to be intelligent ( did say try ! ) rather than frugal on use . EV charging for example ; with a bit of planning has cost zero to charge . Obviously having 23kw of storage helps somewhat .
  12. Shame on you ! . Minimum acceptability is Pret !
  13. 100% ! . Do it and learn ! . Nothing worse than later “ wish I had “ ; though sometimes I do suffer “ wish I hadn’t “ 🙄
  14. No project is ever finished . Ask my mate @Onoff
  15. Good luck mate . Do the improbable. Do the enviable. Do the impossible. No point doing anything if it’s easy .
  16. Don’t worry mines deliberately not central . No wee coloured grout here !!
  17. That vertical grout line isn’t central to the flush plate 😞
  18. I still think cctv is the way to go as it solves many ‘pir’ issues . Also future wise you could add face recognition and then “ emotion recognition “. If SWMBO.location == lounge & SWMBO.mood == angry & SWMBO.carrying == knife then lockdown() Sad thing is I’m not joking ! - this is what I want to do . The fun will be endless 😁👍 THIS is future proofing!!
  19. Yeah I tried pir with humidity . It’s better . But if SWMBO has a real long soak in the bath ( and falls asleep ) lights can still turn off . I did suggest a camera but SWMBO ……
  20. Yeah that can happen also . Especially true for my bathroom . Pir turns lights on but if you are in the shower can’t detect you ! - so lights go off eventually. I did suggest to SWMBO a camera would solve it ; but she wasn’t sold on the idea ….
  21. I use HomeSeer pc software to control z wave Qubino switches . I also have z wave aeotec sensors ( so pir , temp , light etc. ) . One thing I have noticed is that pir over a large area is difficult ( say to keep lighting on ) . I’m going to change a pir to an ip camera . Then the theory is I can setup zones in blu iris for lighting rather than multiple pirs trying to cover an area .
  22. In a marble stone yard a guy told me Italian granite I.e expensive is usually from China but machined in Italy just so the premium can be added . If you say “ Italian granite “ you would naturally assume completely from Italy !! - and pay a substantial premium . Is this true ? Or just a myth ! 😁
  23. And the rest ……
  24. Wtf is it ? Will it generate ufh for the bathroom , that’s all that matters …. ?
