    I did 2.5 Kwh yesterday from my 3.3 Kw system. If you are asking peak power output (which I suspect you are, in which case I'm not sure what your reference to kilowatt hours is all about) then it was at 11.30 am at 620 watts.

    Hope that's useful. I think we are all desperately waiting for brighter days!

    O.45 O's today. Back to the gloom I fear. I've worked out the problem though - the days I work from home (when I could use the energy) automatically become dull. Those when I'm not at home are the sunny ones. Do you want me to give you all advanced warning of my working at home days so you are not too disappointed with your output?
