    I used to like battery hens, but lost interest, the same happened with farmyard machinery .......... I'm now an ex-tractor fan! ;)

    Have been reading through some of the pages on here but still confused as to the reference of o's generated. Someone did say to look in someone's signature but I think they must have changed it as I still can't fathom it out. Could anyone please explain?
    We had a 2.5kw system installed onto our south facing roof on 15th December last year.
    We generated about 30kw for December and January is currently at 81kw. We got a record(for us) 8.9kw today. Does this generation sound good to people? We've no idea as no one local to us has solar panels.
    Many thanks. :)

    Divide the amount generated by the max output your system. so if you generated 2.5 kWh in a day that would be 1 O. 5 Kwh would be 2. 1.25 Kwh would be 0.5 O. It simply gives a figure to allow different sized systems to be compared.

    So you made 3.56 O's today. Congratulations.
