    Serious numbers there @axe2grind , your inverter is going to be flat out all summer. You should look at some of the threads here from last summer about keeping the inverter cool when it max's out for long periods, ok to keep up efficiency, using fans of some sort.


    Only got 5.4kWh yesterday from a 6.84kW array, south facing in Roscommon. Pretty much the norm lately, way behind forecast and last year, daily avg of 6.6kWh for Feb so far 😟

    Best day in 4 months, since end of Oct. Our SW is still going at 430pm – normally it’s gone to sleep by now. 11.6kWh on 5kWp (E mostly, tiny SW, tiny NW that is still hibernating)

    And a proper curve nearly all day. Wasn’t even a fully blue sky day, was some cloud. D12. Having E+S orientation helps us get a longer day.

    So in under 2 weeks it's gone from best day in 3 months to best in 4. Grand stretch in the evenings :)

    11.3kwh today in South West Dublin on a 6kwh South array 35 degree pitch. High export at 4kwh, battery was fully charged and laundry was all done :D

    Started really slow, only hit highs after 1pm with the sun peaking in and out from behind the thick clouds.

    Its forecasted 22kwh tomorrow, let's see how it goes :)

    If you got 11.3Kwh today......I think 22Kwh tomorrow is pretty unlikely :-)

    I also got a very respectable 11.19kWh today from 5.3kwp split east/west. Pretty much clear skies all day. I tabulated todays with last Sunday's and came up with the following.

    image.png

    Seems like there was a high altitude haze there which, while generally clear skies it meant that the max production is off the max production from Sunday. Temps of course could have played an issue too. Interesting though. Previous record for me from Feb last year was 9.85kWh, so nice improvement year-on-year.

    I'm forecasting 7.4Kwhr for tomorrow and then back up to 9.7Kwh for Thursday.

    My shed "chipped in" with 6.6Kwh (off 2.3Kwp) so with nearly 18Kwh this is awesome for this time of year.

    mightn't be a bad thing, get curious posters on other forums asking what the hell it means and might start them down the sólar bóthar!

    Yea it is a long stretch really but keeping my fingers crossed, so far up to 10am, its 2kwh already and been generating steady 2.6kw for the last 30mins or so, skies looking clear, so here's to me hoping to break the record :)

    Tomorrow looking good for Dublin at least.

    Forecasting a solid 11Kwhr (off 5.3Kwp split E/W) Friday looks "meh" though....

    Great numbers, is it a 6kW inverter you have. If so how many watts can it handle. I saw a peak of 6328w on mine yesterday maybe higher today but didn't get a shot of it.

    Thankfully seen the sun in south Roscommon yesterday to hit 27.7kWh, 35° pitch facing 200°.

    Will need a very strong end to the month to hit last years production which will be very unlikely, will need about 26kWh/day. Either last February was very good or this one is poor, I expect the latter.
