    What is the new site address, or is it not public ?

    Well there's a error at energyhive so I will not be able to access until Josh has sorted it out. But I will make it public.

    After a lot of fiddling with the three clamps, I got the phase correct at 11 AM and the solar which was showing a 100 watts in non generation mode now shows zero. But this with the Holmes software.

    The figures all look about right.

    No. Only the few hours shown. I think that you are making point. ?

    No point making involved..... Just that I always find when I download data into Holmes, it only records up until midnight the day afore the download...... thought that perhaps the firmware had been updated to allow partial days to be included....:D

    What a change from yesterday.... Some Egg & Spoons around this evening....wig.gif

    I do seems to be able to cross days using Holmes. It's a shame that the connector is at the bottom of the Wattson unit.
