    I got my owl today no sign of the standby saver


    User manuals in case of backup

    One thing I wish it would do is have its setup on tariffs like I am on BG esstentials

    1. tariff 1 16.120p kWh < 1143 kWh
    2. tariff 2 10.329p kWh > 1143 kWh

    It seems to be dependent on time rather than so much kWh
  • got the owl monitor as well today its the new model CM119 with the cumulative amounts logging but has appeared to have lost the humidity feature of the older model


    The tarrifs as the previous poster says seem to be dependant on time and not the tier 1 and tier 2 tarriff amounts which i assume everyone is on .... i am going to set mine to the tier 2 tarrif i am on click 6 british gas unless some bright person can come up with a setting to take into account the higher tier one tarriff for the initial kw hrs
  • im paying 11 and 6 pence a unit for electricity so i set mine at 9pence so its in the middle.

    im quite pleased with it really, it makes you think..wots sucking the electricty now and then you go switch something off.

    What surprised me is how much dvd players and things use on standby!
