so...if you had a massive leccy bill but paid it off regularly,
that wouldn't necessarily be suspicious? Or would it?

Leccy companies are not plod, or aligned to them . What you use it for is up to you. They do not report

is it not the case that the law can request usage reports from the providers for use to justify raids?
I'm sure I heard something like that, people talk bollocks though of course, and no-one more so than my old pal Yeti

Yeah, but you are years down the line. Quicker ways to raid somewhere. The energy provider do not give two fucks .

I think unusually high bills are as much of a flag as nonexistent ones
If you use LED grow lights the potential for this is greatly reduced I believe

Well halogen will be banned from sale September. Fluorescent 2023, although I expect next year. Sodium and halides will get banned , but they are industrial so might take a while. You'll only have led by 2025 I reckon

All the street lamps here are led now I miss the glow of sodium

Might stockpile halogens to resell in a few years
I mean I made my first million selling incandescents at ridiculously inflated prices to nostalgics who like to cook their dinner by holding it near the ceiling for a few minutes, hooray for good old fashioned inefficiency

I've told a few big companies to stock up now, or else I'm mugging you. When fluorescent goes it will be boom time for sparks
