Hawaii plus here - 20.74kw and probably the cooling breeze had a lot to do with it as it was overcast for a fair bit of the morning. Three loads of washing (almost blown over the Humber), usual cooking for a Sunday and a free shower or two. Let's hope we get a good few days like this in August and September and I won't worry about the expense of new pegs!Solar Suntellite 250 x16 4kW Afore 3600TL dual 2KW E 2KW W no shade, DN15 March 14
