    Should we get more home battery capacity?

    Technically as in physically possible, with enough room before wall edge, or electrically as in VoC won't exceed inverter input limit with another panel in series? Presumably it was decided that 2 x 9 was not feasible in the first place, otherwise the original installers would have done that...

    Should we get more home battery capacity?

    Have you thought about more panels, rather than more battery? Panels are so cheap in comparison and IMHO would be a better use of all that money wasted in the bank earning little interest. The net effect is a better proposition IME. You can generate more, especially on dull overcast days...

    Should we get more home battery capacity?

    I have a few :) Here's my 2p worth... As much as one always wants as much battery as possible and no-doubt, like me, you hate occasionally running out of charge before the next cheap rate, it's a law of diminishing returns. The issue for you, IMHO, is that you are somewhat tied into a...

    Should we get more home battery capacity?

    Well, you can certainly offset costs for expenses for rental income or working from home, even if you're not a formal business - so if HMRC classify such income as taxable it would be logical that running expenses etc., even if not capital expenditure could be an allowable deduction. Caveat...

    Any MG Techs on here who could answer a question for me?

    I would have done, 20 years ago. Sadly, these days I find myself reflecting on all the times I have complained about things or suggested improvements or pointed out technical errors on companies web sites (for example). In the last 20 or so years, I have naïvely expected someone, somewhere...

    Is Sodium Ion about to hit mainstream

    Terry... you don't need to think about those things ♨️☀️🇦🇺

    Long-term ZS owners

    Ditto on BMW 3-series and Porsche 911 - both rears. But that was 10 years ago, so not a new issue IME.

    Maybe An Idea To Renew VED Before The Budget

    (y) but think of how much more damaging your heavy EV is compared to those lightweight Focus and Golfs ;) only kidding.

    Octopus dropping solar export payment rate to 12p

    The latter. Though there have been reports of companies that are about to quit their MCS membership doing some 'hush-hush' deals for around £500, IIRC. My concerns about the OE scheme is that only applies to OE, so sort of ties you into them, once you've paid your money and, hopefully, been...

    Octopus dropping solar export payment rate to 12p

    https://octopus.energy/help-and-faqs/articles/export-without-mcs/ The thing is, if they decline you only get back £100 of the £250.

    Any MG Techs on here who could answer a question for me?

    You / @MG Clive should add a link in the Dealership / EMG thread to this thread for completeness.

    Octopus dropping solar export payment rate to 12p

    Damn click bait.. though you meant dropping all payments rather than dropping rate of payment ;) Good to know though, maybe I won't try to pay to get on their non MCS export scheme after all.

    Any MG Techs on here who could answer a question for me?

    Only on the sales side. Totally useless, despite multiple comms, they wouldn't admit that a 2nd user MG4 they had for sale didn't have full service and hence wouldn't be covered by warranty. They tried to brush around the issue and then completely ignored my emails :(

    MG4 X Power Vibe/Hum 65 to 75mph

    Guess it comes down to what performance petrol vehicles you have owned and where you have driven them. Think our highlight was either the Grimsel and Furker passes or the Route de Montets coming down from Switzerland to Chamonix in a 996 C2 - but that was many years ago.

    Is Sodium Ion about to hit mainstream

    🤣 rather, I was taught that at school and that's a very long time ago, but fortunately the C and F scales haven't changed much in all that time!

    You're making it all sound very rosy. But what about maximum charge rate of SIBs compared to NMC?
