    Oi, back off Oscar dude! I've spent (wasted) so much time today explaining basic maths on the G or B thread, that I think a little ish isn't too much to ask! :p

    Nah, that aint gonna fly - ok, try this one, I've forgotten whether generation was 2 & 0.5 or 2 & 0.3, not wishing to lie, nor (and more importantly) walk downstairs, I settled on an ish.

    I will endeavour to do better tomorrow(ish). :D

    Mart.
    Mart. Cardiff. 8.72 kWp PV systems (2.12 SSW 4.6 ESE & 2.0 WNW). 20kWh battery storage. Two A2A units for cleaner heating. Two BEV's for cleaner driving.

    Well, this is a little embarrassing, remember how I edged my bets to avoid lying (and exercise), well it wasn't 0.3 yesterday, also it wasn't 0.5 either it was actually 0.4. Even more interesting (ok I'm stretching the definition of interesting) it also wasn't 2, it was 1, so 1.4 for yesterday. Oscar, please be gentle, firstly I've had a stinker of a cold, and secondly TGM generation today was only 0.2, even a tap on the inverters only shows a missing 0.3 on my non decimal point TGM.

    Edit: If I'm allowed an 'ish' that's 89ishWh/kWp.
