Had power cuts the other night and now need to reset a lot of clocks .
Just noticed the smart meter needs rebooting , so not so smart afterall.
Most annoying is the boiler, it manages to keep the time settings for hot water and heating on and off, but not the actual time.
Thinking of a way to leave the house in winter with the radiators on frost setting and not being vunerable to the boiler not coming back on as necessary after a power cut whilst away.
Best I can think of
1. Give a key to a neighbour to reset the clock.
2. Set the heating to on 24/7 with the radiators on frost, the boiler would then not need to know the time of day .
( the instructions manual is probably better off in the recycling BTW )
Any ideas? Does anyone's boiler have a back up battery?
