Just the 1.75 O's(SSW only) yesterday, that's do nicely for the slow(free) cooker
2 kWp SEbE , 2kWp SSW & 2.5kWp NWbW.....in sunny North Derbyshire17.7kWh Givenergy battery added(for the power hungry kids)0 -
Got an O yesterday, that's good for me. Predicting 92% at the moment for Jan, but expect it to slide down a bit looking at weather forecast. Still, after Nov and Dec, anything in the 90% region will be very welcome.
Is anyone cheered up by the excellent wind generation from Nov through Jan, or is it just me? Not sure when it happened but I seem to have turned into a 'greenie'. I think I'll blame it on Winky, must have been something in the eggs she posted to me ...... I kid you not, I had mail order eggs! :easter_ba

Iboost plus has two outputs - original only one.
yes I got the iBoost plus as well which is the newer model with 2 outputs and more importantly (especially in winter) has a threshold of 100W compared to 200W i.e an excess of 100W triggers it.
Crowmann which storage heater do you have and what capacity ? I was thinking of getting one as well for days like yesterday it would be perfect!3.99KW SunEdison (14 * 285W) all black, SolarEdge inverter, iBoost+, 27 Oct 2015, London

I have an iboost plus so I had better look for the second output.
Any idea how it decides which output to send excess power to?.
Any ideas for what I could attach.
