    Sun here at the moment but the forecast says it will not be around for long. I will see what my wand can do about it. :D;)

    Yet another really bad August day in a sequence of really bad August days. Just below 1.5 Os.
    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".

    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: B)

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

    I refuse to post results until I get an Augusty result, rather than all these Feb/Mch jobbies.

    I actually went out the back to try to paint an ickle bit of my nice new rendering this morning, at 7am, just to give it time to dry before the rain came in at 9am. Tin opened, paint stirred, small pot filled, step ladder and decorating platform positioned brush in hand ........ Bleeding rain came in at 7.15am!

    Grumpy 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.

    For general PV advice please see the PV FAQ thread on the Green & Ethical Board.

    It has been a dark August around Coventry and Birmingham. Suddenly at 13:30 today we started to get a bit of light. We might even get more than 2 Os today.
