Urgh - a rather unpleasant overnight low of 18.2p wasn’t what I was hoping to see.

Crikey, a 1p overnight low - and not one emoji. Crazy times.

All the best OAP. Thanks for your posts and sorry to hear you’ve had a bad time with Octopus.

Pity those aren’t today’s rates…the weather is as grim as the reaper down here right now.

The big drawback I have with flux is that I’d have to switch the outgoing tariff too, which is a pitiful 10p during the day (when I export the most)
I’ve not run the sums yet - but I can’t imagine that working for me.

This is nice to see, but I’m a bit on the fence at the moment.
Now that we’re in BST most of my energy is solar powered, making the day import rates less crucial.
So I’m considering switching to Flux where I could save 13p/day on the standing charge…but I do like Agile (just not the SC)

I got my hands on a smart immersion heater element last year - and it’s a game changer. Apart from in the winter, it only ever heats up water in the day as I’ve told it to use solar power rather than the grid.
And yeah it stays hot through to the following morning.

I find the URGHH a bit endearing, in an ironic way.

I agree, interior and exterior aren’t for me. Feels very tacky in places

I’m guessing the weather helped. Grid demand in the day was possibly low due to the extensive spells of sunshine we’ve all mostly been having over the past week.
The clouds came back for most of us yesterday, so day prices have rather quickly returned to being a bit uninspiring.

I mean down here, it’s glorious - I’m in shorts in the day, but the thermals still need to come out from 6pm.

Could it just be one of those odd weeks where there’s enough sun and wind for renewables to keep the daytime prices in check - but it’s still sub zero in places overnight leading to enough demand for gas prices stay high at night?
