Im all for helping out where i can.

so, maybe if someone creates a suitable thread that can be stuck?

Please don't take my comment as a critisism, I have a number of forums myself and intend to add lots of things to it but time runs out :(, therefore I have no inclination to do it..
 
I'm actually asking if we can have a different section purely for these kind of stats and results sharing. A single might get a bit messy and if we have a different section we can have threads discussing the results also.

Sounds a good idea such as a members sub- section perhaps ? ( just like on car forum with garages etc etc )
 
Final tally: 18.4kWh for the day.
Although the day was "sunny" all day, I think that the system was still capable of another couple of kWh, based on recent generation.
My wife commented that it was slightly hazy in places as she drove home this afternoon, so I assume that there must have been an ever-so-slight haze which I couldn't see, but which slightly reduced the sun's strength.
We've certainly had a lot more-than-normal mist and fog recently, with the cold, wet, saturated ground in the area boling off the wetness when the sun comes out.

Almost identical day today.
7.4kWh by 10.40am and 18.4kWh when I looked just a moment ago.

I looked at the Met Office charts and, as I supected, there is some slight high thin cloud which is taking the edge off the maximum potential generation. I would expect 20kWh without that slightly haziness.
 
3.92 Suntech panels with aurora 3.6. SSE facing in North East Scotland.
20.8 KWH Yesterday and 22.2 today. Could not have been a clearer sky. Still cannot get above 3.1 peak.
366 so far in 5 weeks 2 days but 3 record breaking temps in 3 days up here. And good news on FITS appeal.
It can't carry on like this - can it?
 
We have 16x 250w panels split 1250w East and 2750w West, connected to a Aurora power one 3.6 Outdoor. Installed on 21/2/12 so still finding out what it's capable of. Peak output so far is 3080w and best day was today with 15.5kWh's. SAP was 2800kWh's for the year, 209 for March and we've already done 220kWh's so all in all very pleased so far. Looking forward to getting my first reading in on the 31st March. :-)
 
from the 13th march 275kWh's till the 27th march 407kWh's mine made 132kWh's in 2 weeks, is this any good.from yesterday till now its made 15kWh's and still shining here

As long as you generating more than say 15 on a clear day - YES, i would say so......

18.0kWh today. Sunny but with a hint of that thin, high cloud yet again.
 
so even with a load of bird crap almost covering one panel its still ok as still have the other 16

That dirty/shaded panel will simply activate its bypass diodes; the current will flow around that panel and it will be effectively removed from the string of panels.
So you'll be running with 15/16 panels.

That's a good idea. Somewhere where individual topics can be created for a member to update with system info, photo's and generation figures.
