[QUOTE="Mr Aargh, post: 544903, member: 35326"] Study octopus flux. Your cheap rate for three hours at night is about 20p but your export is 24p approx. So when you are exporting you are gaining that night rate. I use a gas kettle because the solar is worth more to me exported than it is self-consumed. One thing though - if you propose to charge two evs simultaneous and operate for example night time time-delayed dishwasher and washing machine, check your household fuse. If only 60w you might need to upgrade it. 6700w level 2 charger timestwo = 13400w plus a couple of other appliances doing say 2400w each equals 18200 w/240 is 76amp! 16 more than a lot of household fuses.
