    Back home after four days of brilliant and unrelenting "summer" sunshine based in Salisbury. In the Midlands it has been far from sunny but today we made 4.34 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".

    Hawaii + 0.83 O's:j

    Best day in over a month. Perfect afternoon curve. If we had not had a few clouds this morning would have been a Maiden! The wind helped to keep production up. Also dried 3 loads of washing.:T

    See what tomorrow brings. More of the same hopefully!;)

    Any problem with enphase gateway? Mine seems to have had hiccups for the last few days. Seems not to connect to website!!! Looks like a new software upgrade gone wrong. !
    Did not register around 10KW yest - the production meter has finally caught up with gateway

    Hello, Ispookie.

    Yes, I tried rebooting mine having seemingly lost at least half a day's worth of data. Today on a 09:20 check, the lost data is fully restored. It is rare for this to occur. I had a similar problem before and that was corrected.

    Enphase is sometimes not real time. The data of recent hours can take time to report correctly.

    However, the system long term is identical to my meter.

    Well done! The days are getting far shorter and the sun hours are limited, so you must be over-performing.
