    4.5 O's today so much improved. Some really good breaks in the cloud, I'm thinking of having a giant fan installed on the roof to try and blow them away.

    I've got two dull days to report.
    Yesterday - 8.04kWh, 2.96 O's - so close to a Typhooo!
    Today - 7.56kWh, 2.78 O's :/
    Fortunately the first 2/3rds of the month was well above average, and one more day like today will just edge over PVGIS for the month.
    And as an unexpected bonus(?) the lack of solar means I'm getting to practice my "autumn" settings where I heat HW overnight on cheap-rate electricity, rather than leaving it to the diverter.

    2.72kWp PV facing SSW installed Jan 2012. 11 x 247w panels, 3.6kw inverter. 34 MWh generated, long-term average 2.6 Os.
    Not exactly back from my break, but dipping in and out of the forum.
