    For the weekend I got 2.18 Os yesterday and 4.43 Os today. Around 41% above PVGIS for September at this point in the month.
    Similar figures to you for the weekend KevinG with 4.5 O's today, but month excess well down at just 22%! Looking good for September even so. :)

    Good news, surprised to get nearly 3 O's from a rather grey day. Bad news the grey weather meant cancelling a sponsored parachute jump for the cat rescue I volunteer and handy man at. And no I wasn't going to jump, and nor were any cats - though I'd pay extra for footage of a jumper wrestling with / wearing a cat on the way down! :eek:
    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.
