    19kw from my first full day of generation yesterday from my 3.5kw system (long story), not bad as first days go.

    Congratulations on your installation. Very good first day at 19 kWh / 3.5 kWp = 5.43 Os.

    Just 4.1 Os, but surprisingly for me I have met June PVGIS target today.

    Not a good day here. Saw generation running at 130W from a 5.25kW system at one point. Might squeeze 2.5 O's if the cloud stays as thin as it is now but at least I have crawled past the PVGIS for June.
