    Great day, got 5.25 O's and almost cracked the 30kWh mark. May is currently forecasting 105%, but April lied to me, so I'm not in a trusting mood yet.

    @RLM - glad you're pleased but can you stop beating me by so much please? :wave:
    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.

    For general PV advice please see the PV FAQ thread on the Green & Ethical Board.
