It has been "lovely" here, unbroken cloud today - whereas we have been having cloudy spells recently and then a short thunderstorm yesterday, sadly only a couple of mm of rain though. 23 kWh generated today, 14.2 exported.

There are some perfect days for everyone over the next week. :mrgreen:

After my latest 2 panel upgrade, I'm expecting a new generating PB tomorrow, my current PB is 90 kWh from 20th June 2024. :xx:

Today we had some cloud for a time but still made 88 kWh. :twisted:

Some late afternoon cloud came along to spoil it, just about equalling my generation PB at 90 kWh. :evil:

Friday now looks like busting it. :xx:

What a day here at Nowty Towers, I am almost certain a generating PB will be made today as the cloud looks like staying away. :mrgreen:

78kWh so far, just 12 kWh more to match my generating PB with 9.5kW still coming in. :xx:

We are now down to the dregs of generation but the scores on the doors are over 100 kWh and a new Nowty Towers generation record. :mrgreen:

Over 76 kWh on the grid ties and over 24 kWh on the charge controllers. :twisted:

I would have got the Dalmatian record but I pushed the export too hard and had an overvoltage shutdown just after midday. :facepalm:
