    Well I can't keep up with you guys without getting a swift kick in the Os each time, but one advantage of expecting very little from my systems at this time of year, is that they rarely fail to deliver it.

    Currently predicting 97% of target for January despite the lousy weather, but it's not a hard target, even the 31st of January is below an O (4kWh total). :o

    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'm actually only running at about 75% of target and way down on last January, which was equally wet. Different type of rain last year though. This year has been dull & drizzly, last year was very heavy showers with sunshine inbetween.

    Still, every cloud has a silver lining as I also harvest rainwater and the tanks are full to bursting.

    Well here's a turnaround. Better day today, although Sun vanished as soon as I hit start on the microwave to nuke my lunch!

    That's a result & should lift the 75% figure a tad?

    Yes, i needed that. My 2nd best day of the month.

    Need a few more now. Hopefully in the next week while everyone is having snow showers, we won't! Doesn't happen often here.
  • Much better >>> 1.68 Os.

    Best day of month.
