So no way of charging at night unless you go out and plug in at 1am, so I...
Cheap rate is about 1/3 price.
Currently 25% of my electric is at this rate - dishwasher, washing machine, tumble dryer, etc
I currently pay;
Day rate 11.5p
Night rate 4.5p
The timer I have fitted has an override if you want to go out more during the day you can charge during the day.
My car now charges between 1am and 7am on Economy 7.
I understand that I may be behind the times but anyone else with a standard Rolec tethered charging point and a 3GSx this will help them save a lot of money automatically.
Perhaps I am the only one????
Thanks, I am just trying to pass this information onto anyone that needs it.
I took loads of photos during the conversion, but looks like anyone with the 4 or 5 can do this anyway.
I don't know any way of targeting the series 3 drivers that might want this information?
Mine is a series 3 so hasn't got all the whistles and bells like a charging timer like some models.
I just have a standard twin rate meter and now use Economy 7, I thought this was really clever to do this but it looks like the newer models can do this automatically???
I have a Rolec 32A charging point at home and a 16A lead with a standard plug on for when mobile.
I have just modded my 32A charging point with a DIN rail timer and it works!
Hello to cheap overnight charging
:lol: :lol: :lol:
I have just successfully modified my standard 32A Rolec charging box with the use of a DIN rail timer if anyone is interested. I took load of pictures during the modification too
This means I can now charge at night with cheap rate electricity automatically
