I had similar yesterday. I play around with the settings too much and it looks like the Tesla app turned the octopus IOG off when I toggled the battery lower. I normally check but sometimes it takes a few mins then I forget to check :evil:

And March has now surpassed February in just 10 days. Last week's run of clear skies was a real boost to the PV.

No, second winter hasn't happened yet (no snow since the daffs opened) and each season is a very variable length i.e. summer could be a couple of days (most likely) to a couple of months (most unlikely). :lol:

That's really excellent, by midday the export had covered the overnight stack charging cost. Everything after 12.00 goes to the VB. :)
