    3.07 O's (12.19 kWh) Just above the 12.03 needed to stay on track for Est.
    Strange looking graph with lots of ups and downs. The morning the best. DW managed 3 x smiley-chores003.gif

    She then went and put the last load smiley-chores047.gif and smiley-happy053.gif

    Still been a productive day.

    Not very good. 5,760 Wh /3,780 Wp = 1.52 Os.


    A very bright day with afternoon showers but the sun's appearance has been limited.

    2.3 O's Today.

    It was actually a little bit more than that due to a 30 minute 'hole' in the data while I was working on the downstairs ring. Well out of spoon territory so I'm not going to fret.

    I need about 10kWh per day for the PVGIS estimate so 9.2kWh is a decent enough start to the month.:)

    Got me off the hook then...smiley-laughing021.gif

    1.96 O's today; had two RCD trip outs for some reason; but got power back quickly. Could be weather or inverter related me thinks...smiley-think005.gif...smiley-think005.gif......coffee.gif

    Attempts at sleet, some hail, lots of blustery rain. Is it spring yet??!

    3.26 kWh / 0.81 O's

    I need a daily average of just under 7 kWh to hit March PVGIS target.
