Shelly energy price brake: Best prices only today and only with this code

One thing is and will remain certain in the new year: high energy prices in Germany. Consumers have been the victims of a failed energy policy for many months, and in the last few days events have accelerated. The signs of relaxation in the summer months are being counteracted by hectic plans as a result of failed budget tricks, with massive consequences for energy prices.

In just a few days, the CO2 tax will be increased more than already planned, the increase in tolls will make the transport of heating oil even more expensive, and an energy price brake that was initially extended until March will not be continued from January. Even those who heat with electricity have to expect significantly higher network charges. Even the simplifications for balcony power plants and the generation of alternative energies are being postponed.

One thing is certain: energy is and will remain expensive in this country, and there is no significant relief in sight in either the short or medium term. Now with each new price round you can lower the room temperature further, take even colder showers or follow other valuable tips from the federal government.

Be stingy with the heat.

Advice from the Federal Government

But perhaps you followed the advice a year ago and are wondering what else you can do to improve your heating energy balance. We advise you to replace your heating thermostats with smart versions. Whether this really saves you (significant) money depends on a few factors.

Is a smart radiator thermostat worth it?

For example, the benefit is rather limited if you only heat the rooms in which you actually spend your time to the lowest possible comfortable temperature. The savings potential is also smaller the lower the temperature level is in general and the higher the energy standard of the building.

The voucher code was originally limited to December 21st, but has now been extended and still works!

But it is also particularly high if you are like most others: all rooms are heated to a comfortable temperature, regardless of whether they are actually “lived in” – who turns off all the heating thermostats every time they leave the house? There is no question that it would be worth it – the North Rhine-Westphalia consumer advice center estimates the average possible savings with a smart heating thermostat to be 15 percent. Or in short: the higher your heating energy bill, the more likely it is that potential can be leveraged.

This quickly adds up to considerable amounts of money, and that’s the only reason a smart heating thermostat is worth it. Because unlike a standard heating thermostat, the smart version is full of technology: In addition to the battery and motor to control the thermostat, there also has to be space for a WLAN or Bluetooth module in the small housing.

A purchase price that is as low as possible helps

Regardless of your personal starting point, it is a no-brainer that the cheaper you buy it, the more you save with the smart heating thermostat.

A special feature of the Shelly heating thermostats is the fact that a battery with a capacity of 6,500 mAh, which is permanently installed in the thermostat, is responsible for the energy supply. At least on paper, this should last you significantly longer than with two standard batteries. If necessary, the thermostats are simply recharged using a USB-C cable. The thermostats are integrated into an existing network via WiFi and controlled via an app.

Shelly is a leader and innovative in the area of ​​home networking, the devices communicate perfectly with each other and after you have started your smart home with smart thermostats, you can next expand it with smart sockets or suitable door and window contacts.
