Not good news here, inverter problems with an error code "internal communication fault". Tried off/on a few times but after some minutes it kept failing and doing resets again. One restart finally had the PV input working and running the house, excess to grid. We left it there thinking the fault had cleared but as the sun went down realised it now won't draw power from the battery, grrrrrr.
Only managed 3.01 O's but it wasn't a great day anyway, might have scraped a 4 without the problems.Barnsley, South Yorkshire

A surprising Hawaii minus .01 on a mixed day of showers and sunny intervals. Better irradiance, owing to the clearer skies, in between the clouds.
Passed the 3MWh milestone, since the panels were installed. Still have 3 months and 3 weeks until the anniversary. Hope to meet the 1MWh/kWp/annum yardstick. Next milestone is the PVGIS estimate of 3.6MWh/annum.7
