OVO doesn't say if I have economy 7. I have the following tariff. What kind of tariff is it, and is it any good?

Well their time service is on 800kw, bigger than the RTS at 500kw. China can make bigger ones if they really wanted to.

Pretty sure china has bigger ones since it has to cover a bigger territory. My old 24 inch sony monitor's CRT looked about that size. I didn't have a trolley. So, I had to roll it upstairs.

Anything is possible if you have the model number. China will make it in a jiffy if there is a market.

So long as you have the specs they can make it. It comes down to if you want them. There is absolutely no reason why they can't modernise it during the making process.

You presumption could be wrong. They could be changing it for the sake of changing it. Changing it would create profit for the insiders who would award contracts to friends and families. Kickbacks then follow. If you have the valve model number, let me check for you if it's available off the...

Why would they exaggerate? So, you think they suddenly don't want people to move over to smart meter?

They said 300k household still using RTS. Or aliexpress. Don't care so long as cheap and quick.

Seems more economical to replace the entire valve with a china unit.

Not little used. 300k households use it.

Did not refuse. Just didn't have time to talk to them.

I was contacted since 3 years ago on a regular basis about changing the meter. So, they did contact in advance of the switch off. They may not necessarily have to tell you the exact details for the change because it would just create confusion for most people.

Alright then, they must have found some new valves from china. In that case, I will hold fire on requesting a meter change.

It wasn't useful to anyone. I don't use temu. Aliexpress is my go to.

Well, we are after the switch off deadline, and my lights, fridge, and computer are still working. That will do me for now. I will get the meter changed in a couple of months when I am less entangled with things. I assume I am now on peak rate 24/7. Low rate should be handy since I have to keep...

Is this "BBC long wave radio 4 transmitter" the RTS being turned off? If I look, I may be able to find a china valve for them. Honestly, I am not into electrics to understand what you are saying.

The hot water tank has immersion heater in it. But it is never used because the water and central heating are heated by gas. I am not sure if I have economy 7. When I send in the meter readings, I have NORMAL and LOW readings. The sticker on the RTS says GROUP 7. Is that economy 7?

I haven't replaced my meter yet. Does the RTS turn off at the end of June affect lights and sockets? I don't use electric for heating. Will the turn off just means I won't get the economy 7 off-peak rate, or does it mean I won't get any electricity whatsoever in the off-peak hours? Thanks.

So MK unscrewable doobries can be unscrewed? I misunderstand that it cannot be screwed, therefore there wouldn't be a need for unscrewing something that isn't screwed..

What exactly is an MK unscrewable doobries? This kind of heavy duty modding is the perfect excuse for the insurer to not pay when your house burns down.
