    Definition of 'O's = kWh/kWp (kWh = your daily & accurate Generation figure) (kWp = the rated output of your PV Panels).

    Some very poor days for me to start the month, I'll be surprised to get too 100% PVGIS, but today looks a lot better and could make up for it a little!

    Managed a Hawaii plus a bit (still generating) not too shabby for September and despite the seagull's best efforts to introduce a bit of close range shading!
