@Waywardmike 7 O's is Heaven. Well done!
We managed 4.5 O's, but the weather in Essex was pretty bad for the first half of the day, so could've been worse.

O's are your daily total in kWh divided by your panels kWp, so for me yesterday 26.6kWh/5.25kWp = 5.07 O's. It equals out everyone's totals a bit so those with most panels don't always "win".
2 O's = Bond, As in 007
3 O's = TyphOOO
4 O's = Winks, 40 winks
5 O's = Hawaii, Hawaii 5 O
6 O's = Maiden, 6 balls in an over
7 O's = Heaven, in 7th Heaven
8 O's = Potato's 8 O's sounds like Potatoes!
