Do I need to be a Grinch this Christmas or can I have my tree lights on?

With the cost of electricity being at an all time high, do I need to be an energy saving Grinch or can I afford to have the Christmas tree lights on, this is a question on everyone's mind this year, well let's look at the costs of running them and then you can make your mind up.
The average LED fairy lights for your tree (around 500 bulbs) will have a power rating of less than 20 watts, we'll use 15 in this example will 1/2 p per hour to run (based on 40p per kwh), so 6 hours per day will cost you 3p, so having your tree on for the whole of December will cost less than £1, you've got to be a Grinch if you can't spare that!

This will be of interest to anyone with a solar installation

A solar installation is great way for reducing your energy costs but to maximise your return for the investment you have made, it is essential to squeeze every watt generated out of the system. There are several ways to do this, battery storage, ev charging or as per our example, heating your water....

A smart home can mean a number of things to people, examples being a light bulb that can be switched on and off by your phone or a learning thermostat, but we have to ask in this day and age are they really smart?
Sort of, but really all you've done is just taken the switch from your wall to your phone or tablet.

What we'd consider a smart home or as we prefer to call it 'intelligent, integrated building controls' is where devices all communicate with each other, so the sensor that switches the lights on can also have an influence on whether the heating, colling or other climate controls operate. The same sensor can be used to create an intruder alarm, once the system knows there's presence in an area it can make a decision on what to do with that information, flash the lights, sound an alarm, call you and so on.

The same goes for sound, there's some great multi room speakers about which are great for listening to your favourite tunes but do they integrate with your alarm system so you can speak to an intruder, sound an alarm or maybe allow you to speak to a family member who's at home alone.

This is what an integrated building is all about whether it's the family home, the office or a large industrial unit, the property will certainly benefit from a greater degree of comfort along with significant energy savings, why have heating and lighting on in a room where no one is present or air conditioning units running when the windows are wide open?

New installations, re-wires, consumer unit upgrades, additional power & lighting, fault finding. Serving home, office & industry.
