    Yes, we do have an econ 7 meter, but I have no idea if it still works.

    Ask your parents? :confused::confused:

    Probably because we have switched providers that we might not have an econ 7 price plan now.

    I charge stuff at night and it seems safe enough. The biggest risk for fire is standby things over heating.
    And you think that they are safer 'on' rather than in 'standby'? Why?

    They are safer when turned off.

    But you can't charge things with the charger switched 'off'. :confused:

    Can I just say Guys and Phil, I am afraid Economy 7 does not work like that, there are 3 tariffs, Tariff 1. which is ONLY connected to things like hotwater tank and night storage heaters, that is your cheap rate. Tariff 2 is day time so all other things charged at a high rate during that day, then there is Tariff 3 which is the night rate which is cheaper than day rate but NOT as cheap as Tariff 1.

    So what I am saying is night rate is NOT cheap storage rate as you are thinking Phil.

    Hope that makes sense.
