    First Hawaii of the year, with a lovely 5.13 O's. A2A units started heating the house from 7am, boy we are getting some cold temps this April. Then about 15kWh for the BEV. And we puppy sat a young Red Fox Lab. What more can one want from life.

    But gen today will be miserable.  :(
    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.

    For general PV advice please see the PV FAQ thread on the Green & Ethical Board.
