Big flex today Ron. Congrats.
Lovely day down here, 39.64 kWh generated and 34.4 exported.
We had the power off for an hour whilst the induction hob was wired in, that meant we lost roughly 2kWh from the solaredge system, the Victron system stayed on charging the batteries.
Rear wall array added 3.95kWh
WNW Roof array added 9.95 kWh
So an additional 13.9kWh generated from the new panels.
PS. Weather turns bad tomorrow, rain and thunderstorms forecast.

19.3 generated and 17.5 exported.
Prediction was for 27kWh but the cloud was stubborn. At least it was brighter than recent days.

Low day as well with the house making 14.70Kwh and we exported 11.40 of that
The workshop made 4.20Kwh zero export
House System is split East West
down in not so sunny Devon.
East 8 x 420w panels 45 deg pitch
West 10 x 420w panels 45 deg pitch
Givenergy Gen3 5kwh hybrid
2 x 9.5 battery's
Workshop system is South/East
2440w of panels two 720w strings
one 1000w string
Hybrid inverter with 4x 12v 100Amp
Battery's
Plus grid tie inverter as well

27.3 projected, 24.6 generated, 16.1 exported.
I also built a 'house' for my AIO battery today, lined it with 50mm PIR insulation, I've left the top layer off for now as its still quite warm and my battery temperature is >20C but it will not be long before I add that in.
The C rates on my battery based on temperature are:
above 20C, 0.5C.
between 10-20C, 0.333C
between 0-10C, 0.25C
Not sure if that is based on gross or net capacity but 0.25C X 13.5kwh is 3.375kw or 3.75kw if using the gross 15kwh. I don't think it dropped below 10C last winter anyway without the new 'house'.
I can't compete with that, I'm out

Looking good down hear In Devon today 10.30 and we have had 0.20Kwh in across the house and workshops joint 10Kw of panels It's as black as hell out there Thunder rain and more rain
we hit a high of 120w coming in off the house panels so far and 31w coming in on the workshop. I'm thinking lucky I switched to a cheap rate tariff and charge of a night now.
I don't think I will have much left in the Battery's tonight to send back before the cheap rate charge starts.
[Update rain now stopped and a full 1.5Kwh coming in]

The forecast once again gave promise only to in reality present poor conditions. Equinox here, time to tough it out for a number of weeks and build hope again!
