    Or you could run two flowering tents on 12/12 so there will be lights on 24 hours a day - therefore constant demand & double the bud!

    Yes but I'm using at least 1700w in a flat - how confident are you about that amount?

    My point is that everyone else in the block, even high leccy users, won't be using quite as much as me and it's the comparision that makes me stand out.
    don't get in trouble that you can't get out of...

    1700w is absolutely fuck all. The computers in my house draw that alone, and if I counted any oil filled radiators(Another 2000w) and the boiler(Around 4000w) and the kitchen appliances, let alone the lights or TV then the figure would be even higher. Stop being so paranoid.

    If you can bend that lamp post through the window into your room then it's on your property, you can legally tap it |Fact.

    I used to be a meter man. The current Ampys (meter manufactrurer varies depending on your REC regional electricity company) cannot be interrogated for this type of information (high inductive current at regular times). Smart meters may be different.

    So the converastion should go like this:

    Man from wherever: "Hello sonny, you're electricity consumption pattern is suspicious"
    You: "Fuck off, I've got some welding to do. Then I'm going to kiln a pot I've thrown. I love clay, me." Closes door on official...

    People are right on this forum. You will get busted through telling others or by stealing you leccy, not the leccy company sniffing around.

    Let's not forget our civil liberties. An Englishman's home is his castle. If someone needs to know what I'm up to in my house, they need to be a part of my family. That means they have to be my kid or my wife. So, offer them the choice of adoption or gay sex. Then close the door.
