Hot weather peak

#1

Post by Stinsy »

Today has been glorious sunshine with very little wind, so I'm not surprised that I haven't seen 4kW because the panels must have been roasting hot, but I maxed out at 2700W-ish only 68% of my kWp!

How have you chaps fared?

12x 340W JA Solar panels (4.08kWp)
3x 380W JA Solar panels (1.14kWp)
5x 2.4kWh Pylontech batteries (12kWh)
LuxPower inverter/charger

(Artist formally known as ******, well it should be obvious enough to those for whom such things are important.)

Hot here on the south coast but we do have a little breeze, my main 4kW system peaked today at exactly 3kW.

But all systems (12kW) added together peaked at 6.8kW.
Earlier, I was running the water distiller and was heating the garden with a 1kW fan heater to avoid curtailment from the export limiter. :lol:
