    6.11 for us today. Yay another good day.

    We didn't loose a days generation the other day as we had thought. Because the inverter was not speaking to our router it looked like nothing was generated that day on the Solaredge Monitoring Portal. But of course as the inverter was switched on we did generate after all. Should of checked the generation meter instead as that would of told us we had. YAY! :D
    Everything working as it should now thankfully a-hen-that-lays-golden-eggs-smiley-emoticon.gif

    29kw yesterday and 27 today, again I thought it would be better as today was pretty much perfect at work - admittedly 30 miles away.

    Iboost nabbing around 15kw each day but the storage heater is never cold at the start so it is saying hot around 2.00pm at a guess leaving the rest to go to the grid.

    Fraction short of yesterday and only because I'm going to two decimal places :). Today 6.82 Os and I expect my daily report to say I hit 100kwh for the first 5 days of May

    2.5 kWp PV system, SSW facing, 45 Deg Roof. ABB Inverter, Monitor: 'Wattson'.
    Reg. for FIT Nov 2011. "It's not what you generate; it's how you use it that matters". One very clean Vauxhall Diesel Sri, £30.00 Road Tax: B)

    Definition of 'O's = kWh/kWp (kWh = your daily & accurate Generation figure) (kWp = the rated output of your PV Panels).
