also im sure you know, on the front there is an extensive menu that will tell you peak generation etc.
 
Yes, pretty informative and the graph screen is good for looking at the generation shape for the day.

Also the Geo Solo PV you recommended is a really good piece of kit. I set the on-line data storage up last night and transferred yesterdays generation over. Like it!

I think so, i do agree their a tad over priced, but hey it works and looks kinda cool.

Im pleased your happy with the system, its so hard to explain to potential customer the feel good factor of generating your own power, and the slightly smug feeling of not buying it (par say)

One thing im going to add. A little quirk of the 3.6TL is in low light, like early morning or dull days the display may come up ERROR 307 this is perfectly normal and it occurs when there isnt enough irradiance to start up. Ive had so many calls over this!
 
I also have a cheap energy meter that has a CT coil clipped out the Line main tail so this reads either positive or negative, for want of a better description, power consumption.
It's strange when, say for instance, I'm reading 500W then turn on a 200W appliance and then read 300W! Still, it's easy enough to work out if it's positive or negative by what's currently being used in the house.
Both stand side by side at my desk :)
