Welshman · 5 Mar 2023 at 11:33

Will be lucky if we get 1kwh today…..but tuesday and wednesday now looking good

Although it's cloudy it's "bright" but only just about generating 1.5kWh at the most.

Ron-ski · 5 Mar 2023 at 16:32

Been a bad day here to, cloudy all day, only generated 6.7kWh which has basically covered daytime use, battery is at 3%. Weather looks bad up to the 18 March, which is as far as the forecast goes, rain most days

Low battery warning just come in.

10.3kWh.

HungryHippos · 5 Mar 2023 at 17:55

6.1 kWh today, had a very brief bit of sun.

Will run out before the next cheap go Period but should be minimal grid usage before I can re-charge.

BUDFORCE · 5 Mar 2023 at 18:29

A whopping 1.8kwh today.....

Welshman · 5 Mar 2023 at 18:31

Another bad day just 1.9kwhs…….

Ron-ski · 5 Mar 2023 at 18:48

@katie279 had all the sun today.

FNG · 5 Mar 2023 at 19:13

3.3 kWh today. Maybe a bit more sun tomorrow, but not looking great for the the foreseeable forecast.

It was a terrible day - ferrying kids around and got alert to say batteries charged, cars charged, hot water at max temp and so it was........... exporting. :eek:

I even had a 3d printer, washing machine and dishwasher running.... Gonna need to sort it out!

@katie279 what you going to do when all them new panels are installed?

It won't be the Northern Lights we see from down south, it'll be Katie's light show to use up all that extra power.

Well I've ordered an outdoor sauna for my other half to build, a hot tub and a few other treats - so that'll use up a bit at least.......

But what about the RGB laser lighting?

Well I am planning around 30 new lights in the garden and driveway that will be LED enabled...

I'd love to put WLED strips on the eaves of the house, but it's a real pain to get up there (needs scaffold due to overhanging first floor), so fine to do as a one off, but could see myself needing to fix them after a while
