On my count Dec 22 has already fallen. :D

Oct 22, no way right? :shock: It will come down to the adjustment count I think.

According to my figures October has already gone!
Don't know if anyone else's chart shows an over production for the hour to 1 am this morning but our peak is normally 1.55 kW's, for that hour it is showing 1.8 !

Maybe, but the beta data is a bit creaky: my chart for last week shows zero for the 28th, which wasn't a bad day at all!

I take my data daily from the 7 day previous graph and keep an eye out for adjustments.

Assuming reasonable accuracy (fingers x'd), I need 17.5 kWh between now and midnight to beat Dec 22. :o

Edit, just checked the month Insights graph and it says 12.5kWh needed. Wind is falling, exciting! :twisted:
