    8.72 kWh produced today.

    I have diagnosed myself as having OPVS Obsessive PV Syndrome
    Symptoms:
    * Looking at the weather forecast and planning my energy use
    * Checking the sky for clouds, speed and direction of travel
    * Constantly looking at the PV monitor
    * Switching on appliances according to watttage
    * Looking for ways of using free electricity
    * Comparing my generation to others
    * Using words such as FIT, generation and array
    :hello:

    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.
