I’ve updated my Sunsynk Home Assistant dashboard to include our Octopus Charge EV charger. This meant moving from the compact card to the full layout and correctly visualising heat pump, immersion, and EV charging loads using CT clamps.
Some trial and error, but the end result is much clearer 👌

Saw lignite coal bricks/briquettes for indoor fireplaces today at the supermarket. More expensive per kWh heat than running a #heatpump with at least SCOP>2.5. I'm assuming 30ct/kWh here (my ⚡ price).
Why would anyone do this to their #IndoorAirQuality and their purse?!?
@diemkay recently installed a heat pump to replace an aging oil boiler. Very happy with it. To respond to some of the myths:
Expensive to run. Actually costing less per kWh than oil and gas.
Noisy. Can’t hear it over my neighbours oil boiler. Possibly a bit more noise than gas.
House will be cold. Actually not, just as warm and a nice warm feeling of not burning oil.
Water only warm. No just as hot.
They are different and work in a completely different way to conventional boilers that are still in the Stone Age comparatively. Failing to understand that is the cause of much misapprehension.
Just had solar and a battery installed. Even better.
Another myth is that a heat pump is still powered by coal. Not in the UK anyway. Electricity is a “perfect” fuel. Easily transported and generated by many different sources, mostly now renewable.
