    Good to hear positive battery stories.

    I'm :shocked: You can be charged on here for bad battery puns. But if it was unintentional, then you will of course be discharged.

    Yesterday was a bit of a rollercoaster. I started out expecting nothing, was pleasantly surprised when the forecast changed to sunny, and ended up somewhere inbetween with 2.98 O's which is around PVGIS.

    Still, can't complain as I'm 9.5 kWh ahead.
