    Almost a Typhooo today, got 15.9kWh or 2.85 O's.

    Mentioned to Wifey that I'd completely failed to come up with any good ideas for 4 O's or 40's ...... 10 mins later she comes back with these two:

    a 'Noah' or my favourite, a 'wink'.

    If the reasons are obvious, then they work, if not, then back to the drawing board ....... for Wifey. :wink:

    Forgot to say, my ESE TGM closed today on 10,001, so 10MWh's of PV in the bag. The combined systems will hopefully hit 15MWh's by the end of June.

    It's 13,200 Wh / 3,780 Wp >>> 3.5 Os

    My legal head leads me to claim a "force majeure" event today. A clear Act of God!

    Interestingly, my diversion to immersion is the greatest so far 4,850 Wh. I previously considered it unlikely that I would ever divert that much. Perhaps Master Sterling had a midday shower.
