    1/2 way ish in May; your target = 122.02 O's; my system has achieved 60.72 O's to date: so very achievable me thinks. I need to do £126.18p worth of FIT in the next 6 days to equal last years 1/4 for this period (fat chance) thanks to Inverter malfunction..:(coffee.gif

    2 rotten days down, and 1 more to go, before a promised (yeah right!) week of good sun.

    Still above target but sliding down. :(

    More lovely rain overnight and more promised - but yesterday was a sub-maiden (5.8 Os). Unfortunately something (and not the thermostat) has caused the 6 month old immersion to give up, so no free hot water.

    3.65 O's yesterday, just shy of the average required for per day for May. I expect to slip even further today.

    It's been raining practically all day but I've still managed 4.076 kWh which is at least twice what I need to generate to compensate for the interest lost on the cash used to buy the kit.

    But on the bright side, I've collected almost 3 cu. m of rainwater over the last couple of days so should be able to flush lavatories for the next six weeks or so :D
