    And another one is when you get a day like today. Suddenly, it's 12 degrees outside tonight, whereas it's been freezing for the last few weeks.
    With storage heaters, you have to fill 'em up every night just incase you need all that heat tomorrow regardless.
    To be actually efficient rather than just burning cheap electric they need to be linked into the met office and undestand the environment they're in.

    Nail on the head! Earlier in the week my living room was far too cold (despite storage heaters on max) then yesterday the temperature outside rocketed and it was far too warm and there was nothing I could do about it apart from opening some windows! Normally I try and adjust in advance, but Friday evening was pretty chilly here in Kent so I left them on max thinking it would be similar on Saturday - then Saturday was 13 degrees at times!
