Wooden spoon again then. 1.08 Os today. I think there should be a special adjustment for those of us who are directionally challenged, badly inclined or just downright shady.
Corrected from last nights entry. I had taken the wrong start figure. Had been a bit surprised at how low it was relative to Merlin. 82% is about the norm.Northern Lincolnshire. 7.8 kWp system, (4.2 kw west facing panels , 3.6 kw east facing), Solis inverters, Solar IBoost water heater, Mitsubishi SRK35ZS-S and SRK20ZS-S Wall Mounted Inverter Heat Pumps, ex Nissan Leaf owner)0 -
Amazing how much variety there is with our generation, a poor day here as well, but 2.4 O's.Wooden spoon again then. 1.08 Os today. I think there should be a special adjustment for those of us who are directionally challenged, badly inclined or just downright shady.

I just wonder where the sunniest place is in the uk? Perhaps we should all move there, or then again, perhaps not!
Maybe over the course of twelve months it all evens out with not much variation between us!East coast, lat 51.97. 8.26kw SSE, 23° pitch + 0.59kw WSW vertical.

Apparently Eastbourne is one of the sunniest spots in the uk with 10% more sunshine hours than ourselves here. Mind you that's over a thirty year average, so perhaps it's someone elses turn to nudge ahead now!:)East coast, lat 51.97. 8.26kw SSE, 23° pitch + 0.59kw WSW vertical.
