Many years ago when I was a young lad I witnessed one of those little boxes that make your meter go backwards. I can't remember where it was now, possibly one of those flats at Avenham Preston in the late 80's. As it was connected the disc slowed down then started spinning backwards faster than it was forward. The more load the faster it wound back.

No before anyone asks I have never lived in a flat in Preston.
