Wife is getting annoyed with me chasing her around turning everything off to try and stretch the battery out to 00:30 lol.

Solar forecast totally failed me today, was predicting around 10-12 and I got 2.8… solid gloomy cloud all day! I had only topped it up a touch to 70% overnight.

Currently sat at 42% capacity, so just about 4.5kwh usable and 6.5 hours to go. ~700w average per hour… doable, just have to ban the kettle lol.

Whats using 700watts on a saturday evening lol

I meant if we can stay under an average of 0.7kwh then the battery will last.

Kettles, ovens, tv, lights - all adds up!

I’ve got some 3D prints I need to do as well.

Poor day, 2.2kWh.

I got a great day for production...2.4kwh

Mind you we hit the 2mw/h total since install yesterday, which doesn't feel bad given it was installed on the 27th of July last year.

Its going to be interesting to see what our baseline is when our Victron system is up and running. I think its about 700w, but not sure.

If you don't care about it why keep bringing it up? I thought the topic was done but you mentioned it again today for some reason.

4.1 kWh not from the mountains, near them, but over some water.

Its banter, a bit of fun….thats what i get told when its aimed at me, but maybe that only works one way.

Maybe you a bit annoyed as you started the nonsense about pvoutput…..now its biting back. If you dont want banter or a joke, dont start it.
