Hi all,
I’ve got a BMW and unfortunately it just doesn’t work well with the Octopus smart charge feature.
Can i just turn smart charge off on the Octopus app and schedule my Hypervolt (via the app) to only allow charging from 11.30pm to 5am?
That way i’m guaranteed to only be charged at the cheaper rates? Albeit I’m aware I miss out on the occasional “green” periods of cheap charging through the daytime.
Thanks!
New to IOG (12M Fixed), BMW iX3 on a Hypervolt Home Pro 3. Plugged in at 10:21am today, finished at 5:20pm, so the whole charge ran in peak hours.
App shows “Smart control scheduled” and a separate 3:30–4:00am slot for tonight, so it looks like Octopus initiated the daytime charge itself.
Does that still get billed at 8p, or am I about to cop 33.54p for the whole session
Cheers
Hi all,
I had the smart meter mini installed 4 days ago and wanted to know how long before my app shows the smart meter offers.
The app seems to be recording live usage every 5 minutes, so seems to be accurate but my current deal is coming to an end next week and im eager to lock in a new deal.
Many thanks!
Hi there,
replacing my bathroom handle with a thumbscrew privacy lock - the spindle that came with my handle is too long. Shall i return or are these intended to be cut down to size? It’s total 100mm with each side, so i’m roughly 30mm over.
The handle backplates, spindle and latch strike plate all fit perfect out the box - it’s just this bit. I tried to order a like to for like with my old handle, rather than replacing the whole door or chiseling the wood.
Any tips would be appreciated!
