Let’s address the elephant in the living room: the dreaded cut-off. Yes, if you forget to top up, the power goes out. It’s a hard stop, not a soft warning.
But think of it as a gentle (if abrupt) reminder about mindfulness. You become a master of time management. You’ll never again ask, “Where did my money go?” because the meter told you at every single moment.
Plus, you avoid the horror of a massive quarterly bill. That envelope from the utility company? It simply stops arriving. For many, the relief of no surprises outweighs the risk of a forgotten top-up.
