    Maiden + 0.63 (25.94 kWh)

    Reasonable day. One day I will get a perfect bell. Hopefully not too long and with some cool breeze to keep the temp down.

    7.5 O's up on June 2014 after 4 days.

    I thought i was on for a bell day today too!

    I noticed a blemish anyway - just a shame that i had a grid power cut at 3:15 today.

    Judging by the weather which was clear sky, i would have bagged a further 8 kWh making it very likely a 28 or 29kWh day, at very least a 27kWh.

    With the power cut it was a 21.8kWh day or a 5.45 O day.

    Roll on the next clear sky day!

    I must say, some of you guys should post your images in perspective for a forum. Some blow the forum to bits.....:mad:

    At this time of year, my shallow roof is a great deal better than most 'ordinary' rooves @ around 45deg and almost as good as Waywardmike's.

    Hence my 28.05kWh and a beautifully shaped curve.

    Looking back, we seem to have maxxed out @3.3kW for several hours around (true) Noon.
    Wish now I'd popped up there with my watering can :D

    5.5 Os. Spare washing machine has suffered from being stored in the garage and is going to the tip. A new washing machine is now installed but this happened too late in the day to use the generated energy.
