That's all right. It is the "dark continent".
Then what excuse do they have for charging you more at peak time?
Take it back under warranty.
They need lighting even more to see the darker skin in low light.

Why do you accept inferior s*it?
We don't need to see their skin. Just the whites of their eyes.
They reflect the car headlamps well just before they don't.
Copper isn't an insulator.
Must be such a pest having to plan your usage throughout the day. Now if you had enough of the cheap sources....
Precisely, hence only troll kinsey could ever say, "Underwater is irrelevant, it's the capacitance in the wire".
In the f****ng insulator in the wire you OCD f****it. Go back to sleep.
BMW is the worst. The word tailhappy is a synonym of BMW.
So, to get back on track.... capacitance of an underwater line vs. an overhead line....
It is not irrelevant at all. Overhead, high-voltage wires are uninsulated. Underwater ones cannot be and also have to have physical (metal) protection. That alone turns them into very long capacitors.
Or any other hard substance.
Make the insulater thicker?
Or what if you let the sea be the live voltage?
Or we could send a f****ng powerfull laser beam through the air....
Transmission lines, actually.
"Transmission lines" in the electronic meaning, with a characteristic impedance, not just capacitance.
True.
Eventually I tire out, when he is too silly.
