    OK, as you have 3 strings of panels, and I only have 2(!)... I'll back down :D
    Your description of snowfall describes my day exactly.

    I reckon the tie-breaker should be on inverters. You've got one, T's got three, so whilst you got one zero, T got 3, so he did 3 times worse than you! :undecided Anyone want to check the maths? :o

    I was 'spoon safe' (for a change) with 2.9kWhs, or 0.52 Os.

    I'm glad I opted for spoon cloning. I can see how competitive you all are :rotfl:

    Thanks for letting me inject some more fun into the thread. Keeps me out of mischief :D

    I see our energyhive dashboards have had an update again today - I wonder how "diverted power" will be calculated? Surely this would need another clamp?
