    It's not fair that people who are not on benefits or are younger than 70 can't get this.
  • Received my energy monitor today. It's worth noting that they don't work with economy 7. If you connect it to an economy 7 meter, it can keep track of the KWH used but not the cost, because it doesn't handle having two different price rates.

    I also found that if you have economy 7 the only way you can connect it to keep track of the total KWH used it to connect it to the neutral cable coming out of the meter, before the cable is split into two. This cable is very short and tight on my meter, and the clip is big, so I couldn't do it.

    Would work well if you had two of the smart meters though, you could have one connected to each of the day and night live wires.
    So so SO tired of being ripped off, and mislead
    Hope sharing saves some pain.
