I might get a brew on tomorrow morning... But I'm on agile and it'll go to negative 4p/kWh evening, so I'll get paid to turn the fan heaters on!

Definitely looking like brewing tomorrow now. Electricity is free until 10am. And I'll fill the battery up too so the rest of the brew can come from the battery

You persuaded me . I modified by Tesla tariff, will see if it charges the battery at that time. Two hours is sufficient time window for me to charge the battery from 40% to 100%. Will see how the battery behaves (fingers crossed)

That's exactly it! I was going to say! Some beast of a charger if you're car is charging that quickly.

I managed to pull a steady 12kW for the 2 hours so saved just over a fiver, for the time of day.

It's not really that though, as it was all charging car and batteries and I would have done that on cheap rate normally so only really saved £1.68 I guess. Didn't have the stamina to put a brew on at 7am or put the chicken in early.
