It's my first spoon and I'll take it like a man. I stand a long way off my monthly PVGIS target.I have osteoarthritis in my hands so I speak my messages into a microphone using Dragon. Some people make "typos" but I often make "speakos".0

1.21 kWh / 0.30 O's... Spoon's mine methinks!

Not even close Groover! 0.11 O`s up here!
One of the worst I`ve ever had.
On another note, one of my friends is considering an installation and was asking about £££ returns. In 11 days my system has it`s first birthday and I`ll have made around £650 in FiT payments + what I`ve saved on import (+gas savings).
As I`ve not got a Wattson (or similar) I obviously can`t see these figures, what does everyone reckon the saving on electricity is for a circa. 4Kwp system for a couple with a wife at home all day with child!?
Just curious for rough figures that`s all. Average family, average 2/3 bedroom detached house, that sort of thing.
I think my elec bill has nearly halved.

Cheeky! I wasn't going to post as I've already posted on half of the G&E board this morning, but provocation like that can't go unanswered.
Got a healthy (looking at everyone else) score of 0.84 O's. Also currently predicting 105% for Feb, but these mixed weather months are very unpredictable.
Shine On!
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.

Even though there's nobody at home during the weekdays, we still manage to save over £200 pa on electricity. Using the timers to sequence the WM, DW & TD contributes enormously to that saving.Not even close Groover! 0.11 O`s up here!
