I love my Intelligent Octopus

[HandsomeNymph]

Just got my Intelligent Octopus. Setup was easy, but what are the best ways to use it? Want to make sure I'm maximizing the benefits.

Want cheap rate hours? Plug in when your battery’s low (like 20%) and set the Octopus app to charge to 100%. You can always dial it back to 80% later in the evening

Have you set up scheduled charging to take advantage of off-peak rates? Also, do you use the app to monitor usage and optimize charging times for lower costs?

You charge during those off-peak hours when electricity is way cheaper. But here's the kicker you gotta schedule it just like @GoMickey mentioned. What times work best for you? And has anyone noticed a big difference in their electric bill since switching to off-peak charging?
