Electricity meters

6 or 10 a may be fine when in France in the summer especially if using site facilities as all you are really using is the fridge. However here in the UK you really need 16 same as home to use the heating kettle etc. and the problem us not getting the stuff to site it's the actual infrastructure on site thats the problem. 

not necessarily, surely....?

with a travel kettle (750w) or even using it on the gas hob, there is plenty of scope for running the heating on ehu.

even this could be minimised by heating with gas.

...but the fridge (and charger) could be run on 6a continuously with enough to spare to boil a travel kettle or run the heating on 900w....i dont regard this as any hardship, in fact no real difference....

some get more than the cost of their gas back by plumping for non ehu sites at cheap as chips prices....

if you replace the words could for should, BB's post will be more in tune with his wishes

Yes I know you're only pointing out what could be done, but you mention/post on this could so often

Write your comments here...we had a ttravel/low wattage kettle once and got fed up waiting 15 minutes for it to boil so have a normal one now.

Michael, Im sorry you and Corners are struggling with the English language......

when i say....something 'could' be done, it demonstrates that it is possible and that folk, like you and Corners, have the option.

if i were to say 'should' (which i havent) i would be imposing my views, which i am not.

please dont attempt to read more into my post than is there.

it was a response to assure some that dont know, that its perfectly possible (without dying) to occupy and enjoy a pitch with a reduced amperage.

filled with sufficient water to make two large cups of tea/coffee, i can assure you that our 750w travel kettle only takes a few mins to boil....perhaps 5 ish.

perhaps, like some, you overfill the kettle, boiling more water than you need? this would certainly increase time.

you can use whichever kettle you like, i dont really give one, but to trot out tosh like 15 mins to boil a kettle is just plain nonsense.

There is no really need for insults again BB or to use sarcasm (without dying), the point we are making that while you claim to not care you post on what could be done sooo many times, or ridicule them for the way they are using gas.

Let people holiday they way they want.

Likewise we manage  most of the time on 6 amp and don't  find it a hardship, it just needs  a little care how many apliences  are in simultaneous  use. Our kettle is 1080 watt (just checked) and we have never waited 15 minutes  for it boil. 

which UK site is that on?

it was only your arrogance that struck me, and i see its still there in this posting.

you really do take the biscuit.

+1

again yes please, digestives from you I think

corners, do what you like.....

why do you think its ok to seek to change the tone of my post, suggesting i post something different, and then go all 'hurt' over nothing when i pull you up for doing it....

if you really dont know the difference between 'could' and 'should' (which your persistence seems to imply) than you are struggling with the English language.

if someone askes for advice and the response is ....this is what could be done.... giving a open option.....why does this irk you so much?

isnt it a non-personal, straight forward help-giving response?

i really dont know why ypu are get so hot and bothered.

Think it's time to draw a line under this boys as it's now at a stage of going round in circles.
