Does anyone have a second generation smart meter? Did it take long to instal and are you happy with it.
Bulb our provider has written offering to replace ours, but I am not sure, having read a few negative reviews a while ago . Maybe thats why they are second generation. grin.
Thanks.

They do not save electricity, at least not in the long term. People treat them like a new toy and watch the figures and turn things on and off for a month or two, but then revert back to their usual careless ways.

For those of us who have always kept an eye on energy consumption. It makes no difference at all.
