    I could be line for my first spoon. I may have a few Watt hours to collect, but so far 0.45 Os. Even this has been achieved mainly between 15:00 to 16:00.

    Hanging on a thread.......0.52 O's here in not so sunny Daventry....smiley-laughing021.gif....coffee.gif

    Edit: So excited forgot to ensure it was read as O's rather than the illusive Wh's..:p

    As long as Groovyf submits a reading I should be safe from the spoon.:)

    (I work in Halifax & it's been pitch black all day.....he'll be lucky to have generated a Watt let alone an O):rotfl:

    Hah! No point keeping you in suspense... It's been a woeful day with a whopping 0.5 kWh / 0.125 O's
    I'll be having a warming bowl of soup tonight so that spoon will come in useful :D

    0.87 O's (3.4 kWh)

    Sorry, need to revise my figure as it seems the inverter came back to life briefly after the storm pass earlier.

    Finished the day at 0.92 O's (3.6kWh)
