I have been very impressed with the Miele heat pump dryer we have got recently. Seems to consume around 600W and around 1kWh per cycle. Even on a cloudy day is largely covered by our panels.Coastalwatch said:Spies said:0.932 today, wasn't in to make use of any of it but I think it would have been tricky to looking at the generation graph, very peaky.Yes, isn't it frustrating!

They previous one was 3kW peak and around 3kWh per load. Of which, very little was convered by the solar. Something to keep in mind if upgrading.2 -
