Harvested 32.5kWh today!
This is a byproduct of do the sequential full battery drain and recharge. Normally our batteries would be fully charged by 1030am and solar production drops to just covering loads.
This was 3 batteries being charge sequentially. The current drops towards the tail end of the charge which is why there's a dip in production in the middle of the day. If that wasn't there we'd have probably hit 35kWh.
Good to know the array sizing general rule of thumb holds: daily production capability is roughly panel array size x 4-5hrs of peak sun. We have 7kW of panels so we can safely rely on 28-35kWh of potential production per sunny day.
