Drove back from Heathrow to Birmingham. Heavy rain and low visibility all the way driving at 50 MPH maximum. I'm surprised that I made 1.5 Os in all of the circumstances.I have osteoarthritis in my hands so I speak my messages into a microphone using Dragon. Some people make "typos" but I often make "speakos".0

Mart.Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 20kWh battery storage. Two A2A units for cleaner heating. Two BEV's for cleaner driving.

Why not do what the Camaroon suggested; put an extra jumper on, where do you think you are; GB??
Wattson was spot on today

1.8 O's today, I blame the weather.....
2.5 kWp PV system, SSW facing, 45 Deg Roof. ABB Inverter, Monitor: 'Wattson'.
Reg. for FIT Nov 2011. "It's not what you generate; it's how you use it that matters". One very clean Vauxhall Diesel Sri, £30.00 Road Tax:
Definition of 'O's = kWh/kWp (kWh = your daily & accurate Generation figure) (kWp = the rated output of your PV Panels).0 -

You could be on to something there!
My heating came back on this morning too. 6C overnight indeed. With all the hot air coiming out of Westminster this week I'm surprised it got that cold tbh!
In other news...I've managed to negotiate a good price for my aging Auris Hybrid and have ordered a Renault Zoe, my first fully electric car. Decided to lease, rather than buy to protect me against the rapidly changing tech scene - and leasing is actually cheaper than buying at the moment due to all the crazy offers!0 -

Please keep me informed how you get on. I'm looking to change my old Yaris for ??? something new. Interested in how you get on with it. Also, how buying compares to leasing:D16 Sanyo Hit 250s.4kWp SMA 3.8kWp inverter. SW roof. 28° pitch. Minimal shade. Nov 2011 install. Hybrid car. Ripple Kirk Hill. N.E Lincs Coast.0
