I'm certainly not pleased, I wish everyone could get 5+O's everyday:)
I crashed and burned today with a measly 6.4kWh.
Similar here with only 1.88 O's. So that's the summer gone then....:rotfl:

oi! it is "% of total generation used (i.e. not exported) over a calendar month" for a reason! no cherry-picking cloudy weekends here! :rotfl:
That being said, it's my index, so I reserve the right to arbitrarily change the threshold for a Big Mac to suit the season (or my mood)
Oi? Excuse me, the graph showed 95.4% used in the House, okay, it may have been over a shorter month than yours.....so what....and I didn't 'cherry pick' cloudy weekends, just cloudy mid week...:rotfl:

Hi... Forecast a bit iffy for Sunday...but could do with some rain to clean the panels (lots of bird leavings:mad:).
You can't be doing any worse than us .... two large streaks about 3 cells long and at least 2" wide on the same panel .... courtesy of the local duck population ... it'll take an absolute age for rain to clean that off ! ...
