Pocster Posted October 22, 2020 Author Posted October 22, 2020 Just got this email from Elon Musk “ Thanks Pocster for buying a power wall 2 . You are quite right with your assumption that some people are still Luddites and indeed most probably own an Android phone . Myself obviously an iPhone like your good self . Take it easy and stay frosty - we must meet up soon ? “ 2

Pumping to a height of 200m would be a bit costly. And, as the Cornish Sea Salt company found out, you need permission from the EA to change the salinity of our coastal waters. But no permission needed to put dog shit in it. What is needed, and would be useful, is a monitoring system that sensed irradiation and wind velocity. That could predict when the sun may come out. No need for a weather service then, people in the UK only know, or care, about two types of weather, sunny or rain. Edited October 23, 2020 by SteamyTea 1

Ferdinand Posted October 23, 2020 Posted October 23, 2020 I don't see why a solar water heater can't be made from this walk-on glazing. Obvs it is waterproof. All you need is water plumbed to be inside not outside. The rest is simples.

Pocster Posted October 24, 2020 Author Posted October 24, 2020 Octopus agile will soon not allow you back for 3 months . So ‘flipping’ as people were doing from agile / go no longer possible . Tesla tariff looks even more appealing- fill your boots in summer ! ?
PeterW Posted October 24, 2020 Posted October 24, 2020 16 minutes ago, pocster said: Octopus agile will soon not allow you back for 3 months . Is that in their T&Cs about switching ..? Or is it when you are a customer so you can’t switch between tariffs ..?
