Well the cheaper per kWh, yes, but it still costs more the more you use! Actually I didn't tell the whole story - there is a point where it gets more expensive again, but I don't have the figures for that (it's way above an average house's usage and I've never triggered it). As a matter of interest, what are peoples' average consumption figures? Mine over the Summer was 850 kWh per month.
