What a failure today, with all that rain and thick cloud only 3.43 kWh.  Worstest day so far.

For some reason I'm struggling with the link between my WiFi and the inverter so the app is reporting zero most of the time although the panels are producing...  Banghead

So report is only 15kWh so far this month when it is likely to be ~150kWh...  rubschin:

The dark days of winter are looming.  Worstest day so far, just 3.03kWh, had to buy 15kWh

But with that storm looming for Friday maybe right now it's the big battery back up I value more right now

Just checking but does your solar setup have EPS?
