Ya absolutely. We have all electric baseboard heaters. I went around and turned them all down. We were wondering what that one was too. I think it is the baseboard in our spare bedroom, I didn't turn it down as much as I thought I had so i think it went on. It's either that or the one in my daughters bedroom. The dip at 20:57 was our freezer! 300W! I couldn't believe it (it's a chest "dead body" freezer). I'll be analyzing more tomorrow... gotta go turn on our bedroom heater so the baby doesn't freeze up. Ha!

I wonder what turned on for 15 minutes from 21:00 to 21:15? My son and I kept turning things off and running outside with flashlights to look at the hydro meter. It didn't really slow down significantly until I cut the breakers for the fridge, hot water tank, and a 220 volt convection heater - then it almost came to a stop. Fascinating graph on Murkyview.
