Keep us posted, sadly here its the same grey overcast that we have suffered from for days now, most days there's less than 6kWh trickling in but then even that's a contribution to house loads so I shan't moan.

Cheers Moxi, that's nice of ye. We finally cracked 35kWh off the PV's a few days back, add that to our theoretical max output of WT1 and we would be within 3kWh of that magical 100kWh RE day. Don't think its going to be today though as we had cloud a couple of times. Bright now with 5.5kW incoming but to hit that 3 digit it would need to be a near perfect (or later in the year) day.

No matter though, If we get up towards 80kWh by Midnight then that is in itself an astonishing day for us. Might even be a PB. Not sure, will have to look back as that's the sort of think I should have noted down somewhere! Anyway WT1 in recently Slick 50'd mode (love that) is fairly going a dinger!

Just wait till next year when we have two graphs to monitor. :lol:

We will need a bigger page to display all that! :lol: My lofty theoretical goal of triple digits remains just that. PV managed 27.37kWh and WT1 managed 51.76kWh yesterday for a respectable total of 79.13kWh. I'm pretty sure that's a PB? As I haven't kept a combo PB record written down anywhere I'll going forward with it as my personal to be beat. :ugeek:

In comparison, even just a couple of years back. A single PV system day 🤪 with no Victron and no WT1 would have been 10-12kWh at this time of year

For me yesterday PV 29.91 kWh + WT1 59.51 kWh = 89.42 kWh

Same here about not recording the combo PB, its in the thread somewhere. :roll:

In future I will have to mark it with a nowtyPB tag for easy search. :geek:

I looked back at some combined PBs I could find from last year, @Joeboy you did make it into the combined 3 figures club.

23/04/22
Nowty - PV 52 + WT 64 = 116 kWh https://camelot-forum.co.uk/phpBB3/view ... 150#p11494
Fintray - PV 82.9 + WT 24.91 = 107.89 kWh https://camelot-forum.co.uk/phpBB3/view ... 160#p11520

04/06/22
Joeboy - PV 52.9 + WT 49.15 = 102.05 kWh https://camelot-forum.co.uk/phpBB3/view ... 360#p13148

Wow, Cheers Nowty (preen). Defo going to note that one down and hopefully see it fall with the top mount set of six feeding Victron unit. Thank you! :D
