    Edit: As a suggestion; being as I procured a box of 40 Snickers bars for £5.00 yesterday. A prize for the most Hawaii's scored over say, a three year period: I am willing to donate 1 Snickers bar to the winning home-owner, as long as the postage & packing is covered...how about that....!....smiley-laughing021.gif

    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).
