   Just think about it for a minute, they're actually trying to cut the amount of   
   power used by something which you have running for about 0.001% of the day.    
   It's as stupid as hosepipe bans, when we all know that 95% of water is   
   consumed by industry, not    
   domestic supplies.   
      
   I prefer my hoover to actually do it's job, not take twice as long using half   
   the power, which er.... comes to the same amount of energy!  Doh!
