Keep trying, the two people above have managed to order one.

Or on certain benefits. (Which looking at it to me says if your working you cant have one, but if your on ANY TYPE of benefits you can).

Re: Free energy meter and standby saver (over£50 worth!!)
 

And your meaning to that sweeping statement is what? R C.

Re: Free energy meter and standby saver (over£50 worth!!)

Re: Free energy meter and standby saver (over£50 worth!!)
 

I think it means that "if your not on benefits you cant have one" where if you are then you can. :D

I used my community charge number as I was unemployed at the time, & my mo in laws pension no to get her one.

Because these are all mains powered, I wonder if power use is actually going down?

When I looked after Melbourne House I was responsible for all the annual budgets except salaries.
Monitoring fuel consumption was part of that, and making savings meant that I could spend some on nice things like house plant displays.:)

I got into the habit of reading my meters, at home too, weekly, (but that lapsed to monthly, and now only quarterly, because i got lazy:o)

Whenever I buy an electrical appliance I consider its energy rating as a factor in deciding.
I don't think that having one of these meters will benefit me because I know I make all the savings I reasonably can.
(I even have a solar powered/wind up bedside radio:D)
It plugs in - so will only increase fuel consumption - where's the sense in that:confused:

Re: Free energy meter and standby saver (over£50 worth!!)
 

Exactly what was wrote.

It does mention the cost to run this meter in the instruction booklet, and its very low.

Ps, Thanks for the Karma who ever sent it.:cool:
