Octopus Cosy 6 installation (fan boy video)
@majordennisbloodnok Timing Dear Boy, …Timing.
Toodles, heats his home with cold draughts and cooks food with magnets.
I can give you some details on a few things - like survey, order process, the changes made during that process, some customisations and then the install, commissioning, support and finally the remedial work to get me happy
Yesterday my installers told me the designers have already upgraded the Cosy 6 software to offer more 'controllability' (weather compensation and so on) for those who want to go beyond plug and play. Plus, it's likely they will continue to do this, which is great.
@wreckguru Just skim read - 1 typo - Blurb = Bulb? 😁 Otherwise great - could you possibly add your kwh use since installation?
But @editor is the gaffer so he'll do a proper edit and rejig. 😉
(First time I've seen the back of a Cosy - never imagined it was flat). 🙂

@wreckguru thanks for sharing. I’ll give this a solid edit in the days ahead, and post on the site. Hopefully it’ll be up before the weekend.
