It’s hardly ever about the money . It’s the satisfaction of what you do ; be it make a shower former or shove some pv panels on . Ultimately we ALL have to try and save the planet by generating green energy and using it efficiently. I’m hardly a trend setter - pw1 people were that . I like to see the technology mature a bit then jump in . Whilst the market is tiny it is growing . Saving the planet bit by bit ! ???

A new EV isn’t justifiable compared to a petrol car in most cases . Petrol car nice and cheap in comparison. If I built my house solely on lowest cost I’d have single glazing , gas combi , less insulation , no glass balcony , no ASHP etc etc etc Lots of savings to be made ! But why ? I have a chance to produce something better - losses less heat , costs less to heat , less co2 , a ‘better’ house , a nicer house - but yes ; it costs more . BUT. - it’s all relevant to what my house is worth . This is the real key imho ! I’m trying to put in all the researched and viable technology I can whilst it’s easiest to install as its a new build . I go on really expensive holidays . Why ? Because they are really nice !

Here we go ! I was waiting for this ! But if I go and buy a 50k Tesla car it’s all great ? Roi etc . Buy expensive car nobody cares . Buy pv or a battery everyone wants to point out what a false economy it is . Why does ANYONE buy a Tesla battery then ?

@Onoff ‘s bathroom will be finished that soon ? ?

Sure thing ! I understand exactly what you want as it’s the same as me . My assumption is a decent HA plug-in will appear or as octopus has a specific Tesla battery tariff - they’ll work together and add a nice ‘agile’ option in the app . I jumped in a bit early I admit - but it’s all coming ?

Ok ! It’s all a bit confusing at the moment ! Afaik the only way to adjust the pw2 charge using agile is with custom code or a plug-in type affair for your HA . There are EV chargers that follow agile like zappi2 and I believe Andersen later this year . So I’m kind of a bit ahead of the curve here ? . As I’m the only one on site even limited PV will provide me enough for a few lights and a radio .

Linked to octopus energy agile tariff ( once my meters updated ) means I can charge it at cheapest rate if need be . Also an EV due next year . So a combination of cheap lecky / pv and charging battery at suitable times I hope to benefit .

House battery etc. FAR more exciting than crappy car !

Excited = Nigella + Tesla battery Photos to follow !!!

There is no ffs emoji ...

I agree

How many mistakes can you make before you should give up ? Asking for a friend ...

He’s just an amateur ?

Starting to think ahead . Are there any easy wall systems ? These walls simply sit infront my boundary internal wall so are purely aesthetic. So I was thinking require no plastering , no painting . Is there such a thing and they just ‘join’ together ???

Both have a wonky Conkey

Nope ; nor no wonky eye ?

Laters

Too late for this shower tray . But as @Gav_P has worked out - there are plenty of other uses for such a technique !

Thanks Uncle Nick

Then round the edges with a gloved finger . Just to gently push it in . Monday will do the ct1 lip on top .

1 and half tubes of ct1 round the edges . I find if I wait 10 mins it will drop - so probably get another half a tube down there .

I think you are confused ; she called you “ a knob “

That’s a knob and a half !
