Does anyone know what power consumption a Pulsacoil 2000 should consume? My unit seems to be gobbling up the Economy 7 supply.

Well on the off peak supply / heater.
It is 3 KW.
So you will use 3 units every hour it is heating.
7 x 3 = 21 @ what ever price you pay. E.G. £4:20p @ 20p per unit.
But the unit will not heat up for 7 hour normally.
Perhaps you have a faulty rod stat?

3KW is what the bottom element is rated at. So follow Mike formula and you will know. But also be aware that most Economy 7 supplies feed storage heaters as well on separate circuits.
