    2.35 Os here today, but still well below target. In fact, we have been well below target every month since the system was installed last October. Not very encouraging for a newly installed system but hopefully we've just been unlucky so far.

    This will be my 4th consecutive month with lower output than previous years:eek:

    If tc and exiled both look at the monthly reports that some of us do, you'll see that we're nearly all down over the last few months!
    It's not been good, but hopefully it's just a blip!

    Just to confuse everyone, currently got 66% of Jan target, can't see much more coming with the weather that's forecast, but today was best day of the month with 2.41 ho's.

    ps. Completely off topic - Anyone handy with xl? Not convinced shysters inc are paying me correctly, but as certain hours are cut off after a certain date and not paid until the following month, and other quirks like bonus that is earned weekly but paid qrtly, any volunteers to make a spreadsheet so i can just put my daily hours in and have a rough figure result would be appreciated. Ta la
    4kWp, SSE, SolarEdge P300 optimisers & SE3500 Inverter, in occasionally sunny Corby, Northants.
    Now with added Sunsynk 5kw hybrid ecco inverter & 15kWh Fogstar batteries. Oh Octopus Energy too.

    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.
    Many thanks. :)

    Just read my signature; that's the bottom line..:D.. Incidentally, the www. part of your signature is no longer available; could you ammend please.
