    I'm on the weekender plan and find I'm saving on the bills. The terms and conditions are a bit vague as to how much you can use between 0800 and 2300. They don't say how much you can use, only 'if we think' you are using too much you will be moved to a different plan. I can use up to 66 KWH on the 'Free' day (includes an EV), so just wondering should I hold back a bit?

    I regularly use 100kwh on the free day and about 20 to 30kwh on the paid days and have never heard from them.

    You're limited by your main fuse as to how much you can draw, which I think for me with a 60A fuse is around 16kw/h so it's not like there is no ceiling.

    Happy days! EI's free time is better than Bord Gais, which is from 0900 to 1700.
