Well it may well do, but I don't see why I would ever read a message while logged out, nor even why I would ever log out. I just tried logging out and looking at the message but Lastpass logged me straight back in again! Life's too short and all that.
Actually I often read messages on this board when not logged on.
On hols or an open network or someone else PC:D

This year has been the worst October generation since my system was installed.
2010 - 81 kWh
2011 - 110 kWh
2012 - 87 kWh
2013 - 77 kWh
Still above Climate PVGIS for the calendar year to date though.

Hiya GH, my figures for ESE follow a similar pattern:
2011 - 176 kWh
2012 - 166 kWh
2013 - 157 kWh
(target 162)
but the WNW wants to be difficult:
2012 - 60.5 kWh
2013 - 67.7 kWh
(target 65)
Back to November, nice day today, with 1.11 Os (stop laughing, that's good for me). Predicted gen sitting at 100%, and very nice day tomorrow, hopefully. But long term forecast is not pleasant. Ho hum!
Mart.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.
