I do have to keep reminding myself the names as I'm new here too. Oscar has this in his sig;
Definition of 'O's = kWh/kWp (kWh = your daily & accurate Generation figure) (kWp = the rated output of your PV Panels).
Names are : 5 Os Hawaii, 6 Os maiden, 7 Os heaven. Can't remember 4 as it's been a while since I had s 4
