AES (on behalf of Octopus have been out 3 times to attempt commission it - each time failing to do so...

    Beware SMETS2 meters

    I had my L+G E470 100mm meter exchanged on 30th Nov and like everyone else a Kaifa MA120 fitted. Has resolved my phantom grid draw, first time I've ever seen 0w from the In House Display whilst on 100% battery power. Now just waiting for the compensation. Meter had already connected to Octopus...

    Octopus Energy called me today to schedule a meter swap on 30th November, swapping out both meters (gas and electric) hopefully an end to our 18 months of phantom drain.

    Beware SMETS2 meters

    This is a screenshot of the email from Tesla received 15th October 2020 confirming the issue and what to do about it. No idea why they have marked it as Private and Confidential, I've removed that bit!

    Beware SMETS2 meters

    I would take their comment with a pinch of salt. I have registered a formal complaint back in July 2019 and followed it up repeatedly for the past 18 months, I'm almost on the payroll now! In mid August Octopus confirmed the issue did exist and Tesla / L+G had replicated the issue in Tesla's...

    Beware SMETS2 meters

    Beware SMETS2 meters

    Thanks Mike, I will get on the case with names / etc. I will pull together another video with what we now know and see if that generates some more interest and activity. I'm with Octopus Energy on their Agile tariff, when I made the video I was on their Go tariff 15p peak, 5p off-peak (4...

    Beware SMETS2 meters

    I'm somewhat heartened to see this, purely from a point of view that I have exactly the same issue. I have a SMETS2 meter fitted in July 2019, a Powerwall 2 on Gateway 1 installed in Dec 2018, 6kW of solar. I'm with Octopus Energy. Once the smart meter was installed I found a discrepancy...
