    My last day today the gloriouse 22nd.
    Notched up 2499kWh worth £1,161.68p. Works out at 999.6w/ kWp (for the year that is, not today):rotfl:
    Beat prediction by 453kWh.

    Has everyone been on the Stella today, Legoman is over by 1,000 times, and then your modesty, puts you under by the same amount.

    What's wrong, were you so deeply embarrassed by your complete inability to get even close to 1,000kWh/kWp, that you simply curled up and gave in? never mind, maybe next year you'll get the extra 1kWh! ::rotfl::

    1.3 today, think I'll go and cry in my :beer:

    Mart.
    Mart. Cardiff. 5.58 kWp PV systems (3.58 ESE & 2.0 WNW). Two A2A units for cleaner heating.

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

    I'm just jealous as my system is so far from 1,000kWh/kWp I'd need binoculars to see it - or beer goggles perhaps!

    Congrats, that's some mighty fine generation. :T

    I take it that you don't have a 4MWp system and therefore meant 110Wh ? :D

    Z

    Yeah, just stuck the extra k in. Would have been nice to have made 110kWh tho. Probably would have needed all the people with panels on their roofs within 50 mls :D

    I don't think the tree has any effect at this time of the year. But if you want to organise a protest at my back neigbours house to chop the tree down, your welcome to do it. :)
