I've seen and been intersted in the Engensa solar 24 - but its pricey. Would like to hear from anybody who gets one though. Or anyone who has found out more about it than is available on the website.

Thanks for the info.

And don't mess with mains unless you really KNOW what youre doing
You can get a shock :eek:

My meter is on the outside of the house in a box, so would either way be feasible?energysavingexp wrote: »and the one i have put in my link0 -
OK, the SSR is tough enough, so long as the other relays have the appropriate low voltage. Good luck.0
