The timimgs approximately 12am till 7am GMT
and 1am and 8am BST
Mine is from 1pm to 8pm - every time we have a power cut, the meter stops so the timing is wrong. Over 25 years, it makes a big difference.

You should be able to work out when yours starts by examining the meter.

Mine has an arrow which points to 'high' or 'low' at the relevant times.

Many thanks. As the tank is in my bedroom I might just use the boost button as and when I need it otherwise the motor will just keep waking me up!
Dont forget that during the E7 Times the electricity is approxx 1/3 of the cost of nomal electricty
It can vary from region to region and with your supplier.

Some start at 22:30 for 2 hours, then back on at 02:30 until 07:30 giving you your 7 hours.

Some give a straight 7 hours from 00:30 to 07:30.

If in doubt call your supplier to check.
it may be cheaper to run but the cost per watt(i think thats it) costs more, if that makes sense, so make sure that you have enough items running through the night to make it worth while
