🍽️ Best Value Dishwash
15:11
SPEED wins by 2p over ECO, the next cheapest: it uses 10p more water, but saves 12p of electricity, because its 1.0h window is cheaper (13.6p a kWh against 31.8p), which outweighs the extra power it draws (1.58 kWh against 1.06). Every setting at its own cheapest window, under the prices still to come:
The cheapest window for SPEED starts Tue 15:00 and runs 2 half hours, where the Agile price averages 13.6p a kWh.
