Cheers Joe, it took a bit of using power to stop the inverters cutting back to limit export, that and an almost perfect cloudless day.

I've been doing the inverter dance from Belguim to keep it all on song. Even had the SH's charging yesterday. SWMBO flattened the lot by chucking it all into the EV on son & I first night away! Which was in its own way pretty 8-) as the effort was made.

I can't wait to see who is across the 200kWh in a day line. :twisted:

My money is on Clockman Fra with his sculptural solar trees?

I don't think I'll have quite enough assets even with Kirkhill assets operating. Might squeak it with Kinlochbervie hydro if the display output?

Could be Tinbum, but whoever it is, it shows the difference an individual can make.
