    Generation on the meters was 0 and 0.1, so a mighty 0.018 O's, and about 2p. :rotfl:

    Slightly better up in the valleys; 0.075 O's for yesterday.

    Not as bad as 19th December 2015 when it only made a total 34 Wh for the whole day!

    10:45AM and already made more than yesterday!

    That's about enough for one hours background usage

    I was working up your way yesterday, at Peterlee. Lovely place, westerly wind, the sea was 'flat calm' temperature 17c. Only 1.48 O's today here..:(...coffee.gif

    Reg. for FIT Nov 2011. "It's not what you generate; it's how you use it that matters". One very clean Vauxhall Diesel Sri, £30.00 Road Tax: B)

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

    My way! :rotfl:

    Peterlee is like midway between Middlesbrough and Sunderland I think! That's nearly Kilt land! :D

    You is about 100 miles north of me! :rotfl:

    Not even sure what language they speak? Need a Bablefish to translate! :cool:

    Yesterday picked up and we got 0.86 O's, but the previous few days have wiped out most of my 'bonus buffer', so now down to 103% prediction, but hopefully there are quite a few nice days on the way over the rest of the month, so fingers crossed for a plus month.

  • Question for you lot if you don't mind!

    Do any of you have figures for your annual kWh generation on a 3.68kWp capped inverter? What is your generation capacity pre-inverter, i.e. do you have 4, 5, 6, 10 kw of panels?

    Thanks!
