Correct, except the gas meter updates the electric meter more
frequently than that.

My IHD certainly only receives gas readings every 30 minutes, whereas
the electricity readings are about every 15-20 seconds.

They may well be battery powered. My oil tank gauge is and it lasts
typically about 5 years on a custom stick of expensive AAA alkalines.

Don't you buy them from Poundland then?

Kodak. 10 year guaranteed storage life. Never hasd one leak. 5
for £1 or you can get a 12 pack for £2. 17p each.

Same for AA, if you have a use for them - most people do these
days.

Screwfix have AAs on offer - a box of 24 Varta ones for £7.95.
