I make it 42.63% CF for the month as the one to be beaten (Jan 23).

Currently standing at 33.36% so far for Dec. Just under 1/3rd of the month to go. I hope its a double, power & cash PB. :twisted:

Really? I don't keep that close an eye on it (all evidence to the contrary). I'm going to have a look and see if I have a financial PB day noted down. Assuming 97.5% was Jan 23?

Edit, what a nugget! 19th Nov 23. :hysteria:

Cheers Joe and still whizzing too, so far today circa 98% CF so touch and go for a new record. Forecast for rest of the day looks promising too. :xx:
If these high winds keep up it perhaps leaves the door open for later entries in the end of year stats competition to make a closer assessment. :facepalm:

Edit. the hour from 1600 hrs returned 97.5 ish CF so reckon confirms your suspicions about a comms issue.

96.53% CF for yesterday before adjustments. Two of the 1 hr measurements were also off yesterday due to data drop outs. Might be a few days before we know. 🤔

I reckon it was a PB. An astonishing day regardless.My unadjusted take was 60.44kWh.

I clicked over into a £200 month in the last hour. The next couple of days though... :shock: :D The 3 day run of Christmas 23, straight into legend status. :praise:

Predicting a 'New Month PB' from evening of 28th Dec if the wheels stay on. Away down to Edinburgh for family Christmas at Daughterly's & No1's City pad.

Merry Christmas lads & lassies, all the best! 🎅

I’m in monthly PB territory with the help of my father, I think of him every time it cranks.

Also just shy of £200 on the saving sessions and export so far, so all the whole winter is already paid for. :twisted:
I reckon the rest of the winter ripple rebate will pay for the re-powering of my shed roof for that little bit extra export. :mrgreen:

No dropouts from GF today (so far), so hopefully either yesterday or today will be a PB after the confirmed adjustment. :twisted:
