I sadly went back through every post and I found another member of WT1 and another for WT2 I had missed. :ugeek:

Or if your on about WT1's output I think no wind for a few days, but on the other hand solar is looking good to compensate.

Mum and baby all well and I am away to bring them home later this afternoon hopefully.

Looking like a better solar day here cloudy still but bright and very high whispy cloud, hopefully you’ve got similar conditions or better today JB

Congratulations to you all! :) :D :D :D

Got this in from Sarah last night 'We are looking at more automated solutions. There are lots of changes to the dashboard coming, hopefully in May.'

Interesting to see what they come up with. :?:

Nowty Towers Solar power station has been doing much more kerching today than WT1.

Not so much swoosh, but my Sunny Island was flat out with its electrical buzzing and the cooling fans full on. :twisted:
