A record 6.2 Os today and a worrying 16kWh into the iBoost.
Used to take around 6 - 7 kwh to get "water hot" on iBoost, now I never see it and I can hear my water tank bubbling away, any idea what is going on?. The water is scolding by the way.4kWp, South facing, 16 x phono solar panels, Solis inverter, Lincolnshire.0 -

5.8Os which finally means 14th March is no longer our best day of the year.
There were also a few dips so 6Os was not impossible.
Which brings me to the PVoutput.org output. On this we were 10% over the 'insolation' calculated output. Does everyone else regularly exceed these lines which I thought were the theoretical 'best case' output or could it be that I have not entered our configuration correctly?I think....0 -

Got my first 2016 12 by 12 today. That's 12kWh by 12 noon on the ESE system. That's big generation for me. If the weather holds, it should be a big one.
Mart.Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 28kWh battery storage. Two A2A units for cleaner heating. Two BEV's for cleaner driving.
