    Yeah lots of new blood, on a day when I finally got more than target, 4.4kWh and still get my backside handed to me in O's .... 0.79 Os. Starting to go off the O's!

    Hiya Vomity, so you made it then. Can I ask what panels you went for in the end 4kWp exactly or just under/over?

    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.

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

    I think a lot of people have never been east of the M1; well let us say East of the M11?
    Some people have this funny idea that Saff Essex is as flat as a pan cake, whereas where I live there is a range of hills that climb to over 100 meters only 3 or 4 miles back from the bank of the Thames.

    Should it not be Os (plural), rather than O's (belonging to O) though?
