  • Hi,


    as already said in previous post, you don't need to switch off and on each day, the time switch controls the E7 circuit, just control heater using the input knob.


    You don't need to wait for next meter reading, just take a daily reading and work it out yourself, you could even make up a spreadsheet.


    All it is is,


    Night units used x unit price,
    + day units used x unit price,
    + daily standing charge x number of days,
    add them together then add 5% vat, and that's you.

    Have you tried leaving it on overnight with input set low, Dandytf?

    Also if it's not too nosy, whereabouts are you, since E7 times vary by region.
