That will give me over 9kw of power, lets see how that goes. Got some more blankets and thick socks too. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

We have been planning something similar and I'm not joking. Our 9kw shower has been used less by me over the last few weeks. I am now relying on the sniff test before I use it My son has a 3kw radiator in his room, which he isn't using at all. A calculation of 69p per kwh over 24 hours using that radiator would work out £49.68 per day! I know the radiator use is intermittent, but it gives you an idea of costing. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
