Longest day generation times

I looked at exactly what time my solar generation started and stopped over the weekend of the longest day.
It started with 1W at 02:45, and continued until it petered out going back to 0W at 23:10.
I know 1W isn't going to a great deal of anything, but love the fact that at this time of year there is only about 3.5 hours without any solar PV

04.30 to 21.45 is the best I've had.

Wow, how far north are you?!
First generation here was 5.30am, last generation was 9.15pm!

21st not a good day here, late start and circuit tripped out around 16.15! But yesterday was best day by far this year commencing 04.45 ending 21.30.

Maybe my inverter calibration / resolution is slightly off.
If I look at when it hits double figures - 10W - it changes to 04:35 / 21:45, so more in line with other northeners!

05:30 to 22:15 down in Somerset, startup nearly 40W.
