    Definition of 'O's = kWh/kWp (kWh = your daily & accurate Generation figure) (kWp = the rated output of your PV Panels).

    My last day of leave today and back to work on Monday. I had a mid-day walk in the sun, but results are far from impressive at 2.8 O's.

    Beginings of a perfect day yesterday, steep climb, started at 05:30 until 10:30 at 3.2kW, then just plumited to 0.5kW for the rest of the day.
    Still managed 3.8 'O's though !

    5.02 O's. It was a warm day that seemed very bright but the generation was lower than I had expected.
