I switched off of flat pricing when we put up the solar under the presumption that 1) I would get paid more for production during high usage times 2) - oblique Jan 5, 11:00 5
- I mean sure. but didn't we just learn an $85 lesson that that doesn't work in winter? -- nm - judge amanda jones Jan 5, 11:07 4
  - Their FAQ even says "Hourly Pricing’s energy supply costs have never approached $3.70 / kWh — even during the Polar Vortex in February 2014" - oblique Jan 5, 11:11 3
    - even though we don't have timed pricing here, I spent the extra $30 for the smart charger in case it's ever implemented. I am honestly shocked - judge amanda jones Jan 5, 11:14 2
      - I kicked myself repeatedly after noticing it when recommending it to you. I may try to sell mine and replace it with the smart version OR - oblique Jan 5, 11:20
      - you just need to hardwire into that garage -- nm - decline Jan 5, 11:16
