    A great day yesterday ! :j :j :j
    Not only did we generate 26.773kWh (for those who want to divide by 4 but can't manage it that would be 6.69) hence earning £14 but I also managed to put 8.6kWh into the EV saving roughly 50p compared to its usual overnight charge and giving me over 30 miles of absolutely free travel.

    My only regret is that I didn't collect any rainwater :sad:

    Today was almost as good (25.25 kWh so far and still generating 100W).

    Managed a couple of hours charging car but OH spoilt that by taking it out for a ride.

    Again, I didn't collect any rainwater :sad:

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

    3 O's is a TyphOOO (you only get an OOO etc)
    4 O's is a Wink (4O winks)
    5 O's is a Hawaii (Hawaii 5O)
    6 O's is a Maiden (an over in cricket with no score or O score)
    7 O's is a Heaven (7th heaven)
    8 O's ....... not sure we have one for 8, but not sure anyone has managed an 8 either ...... any suggestions?
