Friday, [STRIKE]Good morning but poor afternoon[/STRIKE]. The sun shone till around 11:00 based on the reading of my data. The effect of the sun or luck of it reduced my production from this point. Not sure why as I was driving south down the A1/A14. From around 13:00 I think it may well have rained as production fell even further.
1.75 O's
Cannot post Saturday production as I don't know what it is yet. Well I could find out but that means I need to go into the garage and its raining. Need to go outside and then into garage as no connecting door from house to garage.
Will post when I know. As soon as its stops raining or my WIFI thingy works again.3.795 kWp Solar PV System. Capital of the Wolds0 -

My WIFI thingy is now working.
From my graph I have I believe it was sunny in the morning but not as sunny in the afternoon. I cannot confirm this as I was in Bury St Edmunds. Never been there before, don't think I will go back again as too many drivers who are very impatient!
