    It was taken from the Solaredge inverters. Which I suppose if I'm fair could be 5% over the generation meter.
    So even then 29.95W, 7.5 O's.
    In low power the solar edge seems a bit sporadic, in high gen it seems more accurate. Other than checking the meter every day, are there any better ways?
    As Leggo wrote below; No! I find that my Inverter, which is an Aurora, sometimes retains the previous days generation and adds to it....:(
    Do you have a spreadsheet running with daily totals; when was your install done?..;)
