So you set your timers to heat Water at night? I suppose I could set timers for washing machine at night but it is getting behind the bloody thing lol

I don't have storage heaters. I'm on Economy 7 currently 35% ish of electricity (so it's worth my while) is billed on night rate because:

Washing machine
Dishwasher
Tumbledrier

all have timers and only used at night, plus we leave for work before 7 so any electric showers included. All cooking is gas as is CH - I'm wondering if / how to get this % higher. Don't use standby, energy saving bulbs where suitable, one AAA rated fridge/freezer... how high has anyone managed to get the E7 usage? Obviously I'm not going to get storage heaters....
