    System 1: 1.15kWh
    System 2: 1.23kWh
    A totally cloudy day. System 2 beats system 1 on a cloudy day, but loses when in sunlight because of the low sun angle at this time of year.

    Assuming that we're all still here after the latest "End of the World" showdown on the 21st. :p

    Car Insurance Carver!
    It's 3 days before the winter solstice and we clocked up a scrumptastic 9.3kWh today, just edging us past 100kWh so far this month. We've already beaten PVGIS by 22% so I reckon a '+60%' should be doable even if the weather is 'average' for the coming 13 days. I daren't look at the long range forecast though!

    Happy to sell you some anti-end of the world insurance. It's 100% guaranteed, in fact, if it doesn't work I'll give you a full refund. ;)

    4.6 yesterday, not bad. Lots of rain on its way though.

    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.

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

    Another poor day today.
    System 1: 0.237 kWh
    System 2: 0.240 kWh

    System 2 (with the power optimisers) woke up a good half hour later than system 1 but caught up and overtook system 1 during the 'daylight'

    Mart.

    Tread carefully Mart, don't forget the mis-selling regs. and the possible compensation claim, (if he survives the 21st.) you could be on a loser there..:D

    A fantastic 200W today, an extra 9p. for the 'get rid of cash' pot! :A
