It might be useful for someone in the future to see if a smarter schedule could be added and I might look into that at some point, but I'd definitely feel better if even reducing the polling to hourly rather than 12 hourly takes the pressure off. I'm not skilled enough to do smarter schedules, but hopefully this PR is good enough in the meantime.

Thanks for the feedback so far!

Thanks, @blastoise186 👍

Yay! No worries. :)

I'd have been pretty shocked if any of those checks had gone red to be honest! XD

I've heard that OVO might bring out a Public API in the future, but hopefully in the meantime this should help to make life easier for everyone.
