    15.7 kWhs? That's impressive. That lunchtime cloud must have missed you.

    I`ve asked the question on here before of how age impacts on efficiency, and looking at all the newcomers generations over the last week or so I think it`s obvious these systems decline in time. Either that or the newer technology is far superior. The recent scores on here for the `newbies` are far superior to mine and the more mature posters on here.
