    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!

    Losing count of the Big Mac's you now owe me; would like em sorted before the 'vote'.........:rotfl::rotfl:
    Even worse today than yesterday only a/an Hawaii +0.76 sad innit....happy-in-the-sun-smiley-emoticon.gifcoffee.gif
    2.5 kWp PV system, SSW facing, 45 Deg Roof. ABB Inverter, Monitor: 'Wattson'.
    Reg. for FIT Nov 2011. "It's not what you generate; it's how you use it that matters". One very clean Vauxhall Diesel Sri, £30.00 Road Tax: B)

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

    Lovely day here too. Best gen of the month so far with 22.7kWh giving me 4 Os and a bit. 8 days in and projecting 105% for the month, so another good start.

    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.
