Yeah & then when hard times be-fall you (& I hope they never do btw....worst case scenario) your power supplier says what you can have on & what you can't have on in your own home.....

Joking aside though, a good friend of mine has been using this or something similar for years now, even controlling/switching his Solar Panels on the roof. Amazing!

However, when I come home and if it's cold, I turn the heating on manually. We have a timer function for sure & thermostats fitted to all the Radiators around the home but I want control at the time.
I could be in Plymouth @ 5 Degrees & 50 miles away further South West where I live, it might be 10+ degrees. - No need for Auto Heating eh!
