No1's Hoymiles has passed its first 100kWh generation. Not bad for a late season (16th Sept) addition.



There remain a few trees to be felled as can be seen.on the graph. We'll get those done next couple of months.

Only stop when there’s no more physical space to cram in any more

No, after there is no more room, then you re-power the least efficient ones and sell the old ones on.

No1's 800W system is doing well for its 1st Winter.


The double dip early in morning has been half sorted this morning with a heavy pollard of a crow magnet tree. Double bonus there.

Our own systems hit 2.2kW, momentary only but great to see!





One more tree to go, a tricky one. Its leaning directly over the cabin. Might have to nick away at it to reduce weight. Once all trees that are to be are cleared I'm going to plant a load of cherry blossom in the wood. My own wee sakura spot.

Cleared some easy access panels at my own home. Managed to get a little incoming PV.

Had a look at No1's hoymiles, it was doing OK on the single panel.





Easy access to clear the second panel though.




I love that, his wee 2 panel system is kicking the arse of my 30+ snowbound & shaded behemoth.
