    Wallbox Pulsar Plus and Oct' Intelligent

    I am using octopus Intelligent, but it has taking me many weeks complaining, but eventually connected. I wont be using their OCPP, I’m just using the 6 hours 7p per kwh, controlling when I charge. I have solar panels so often charge for free, something you can’t do using Octopus OCPP. Sorry yes...

    Wallbox Pulsar Plus and Oct' Intelligent

    I too have signed up to Octopus Intelligent but my Wallbox & MG4 isn’t playing when I try to set it up as per the instructions. I wrote to them as recommended, still no reply, I don’t understand what the problem is as they say the Wallbox is compatible.

    If you join Octopus GO/Faster today it is 12p kWh up to 5 hours-0030-0430, 41.46p outside cheap rate & 52.32p standing charge. Although my setup is cheap rate 2130-0230, not too sure that this is available today.

    Octopus Go Setup Problems

    i have been with Octopus GO, now GO Faster and my IHD shows the standard day Tariff but don’t change for the 5 hour cheap 8.5p rate at night. I can see from the app my 1/2 hourly rate and usage. I would just wait for your first bill which gives you an 1/2 hourly breakdown PDF. It can take...

    I started Octopus about 18months ago, it was only 5p kWh then. I only pay 8.5p now, but know its going up to 12p, when my current Tariff runs out. Its still cheap @12p cheaper than charging away from the house. My ID3 cost me about 1.5p a mile when it was @5p, now with my MG4 its about 2.5p a...

    I did 12 months research into installing panels and a battery. I found many various makes, but if you went online to research what panels and batteries are best that would give you good advice, once you start getting quotes. I got 8 quotes, with detailed make of panels etc, so I used my research...

    It will take about 2 1/2 years to pay for the panels and if electric tariffs stay similar, another 2 1/2 years to pay off the battery cost. Before the big electric increase, I was looking at 7 1/2 years. Cost £11500. Which included fitting.

    If you were to consider buying solar panels/battery. I can financially recommend considering. As I own an EV and the rumble of electric tariffs going up early last year, I decided to invest in 11 solar panels & a 10kWh house battery being fitted in April 2022. Doing number crunching this month I...
