Do wonder about the technology used.

Mate wanted one. Lives in Tooting in a terraced house similar to loads in
the area. Gas meter in cupboard under the stairs.

Couldn't be fitted - no mobile phone reception for the service it uses.

If it can't be made to work in a pretty standard location in a pretty
standard house in London, I'd guess it will have even more problems
elsewhere.


On the first visit here the guy couldn't get the gas meter to connect,
full signal strength but some sort of "server" problem.
Different guy turned up about two weeks later and got it to connect
first time.

This was back in April...
