Cheers Simon, No I've not touched that yet, I'll need to read up on it a bit yet or watch a YT video.

I'm just about to plug that "granny charger" in to see how it works, I've switched the tumble drier & washing machine off as any more load of this antiquated shared loop electric system would blow the old wired fuses Still waiting on the DNO to upgrade our supply, It was supposed to get upgraded on the 21-22nd January but the chap in the end house in this block of three tested positive for covid so the electricity board cancelled



The biggest fuse we have in that old bakerlite fuse board is only 30amp.

Whilst it's charging the MG logo on the cover will pulsate. Whilst it's balancing it will have a steady glow and when all's done it will go out.

Also if you go to open the door your dashboard will tell you what % you are on

Yes It was pulsating whilst I had it on charge for the four hours, I stopped the charge before it went out. Alls good with the "granny charger" I still need to get some decent armoured cable laid but I'm still waiting on the DNO to upgrade us & then I can get a consumer unit put in.
