    Sixth Anniversary Combo Breaker
    Sun and cloud I guess today, to bring me out of spoon territory... 6.96 kWh / 1.74 O's
    System peaked at 1920 Wh at some point.
    A frustrating and non-moving cloud bank hovering over the Pennines to the south west scuppered any real production for the final couple of hours before sunset.

    Still, look on the bright side... no spoon! :D

    Just out of interest, please could you indicate (perhaps in your signature) approximately where "here" is?
