Not wishing to hijack this thread and unsure wether to post here or the "every little counts thread" but ................ tonights success ........ Have always been unhappy with heatpump outside unprotected -even though they are designed to be outside . Covers are usually cheap painted st...

There is a related issue whereby with a lot of generation it can be better to charge the battery at half the rate for twice as long so you are not trying to export above your limit as soon as the battery is full. This is potentially an attractive thing to do as I don't think my DNO will agree to me...

Thanks for that Al, I am interested to see how it all settles down as its not been in quite a week yet. I set a 12A draw on the batteries to EV last night at and it pulled the stack down to 12% soc by early this morning. It did recover a little but not as extreme as the 10% gain a few days ago.

Nice one dan, real world difference maker. California has a good year round climate I think?

Joe, you could make the side brackets right angle bend just clear the top of the gutter and have another right angle bend pointing upwards and screw it to the wooden rail thereby allowing you to adjust the runoff angle of the panels. No 3m lengths of 3 or 4 x2 here I'm afraid. Thanks for the inspir...

Are you going to put some sealant between the panel edges and bolt them together to stop any water getting between the panels? Yep, I've bought some T shaped rubber seal. The dearest part so far is keeping it all in stainless steel. I'll order some s/s machine screws and nuts once I've seen the pan...
