Since we've had the sensor replaced our solar panels seem to be working better than before. As well as being replaced the sensor was also put in a slightly different position, so maybe that's why.
Between May 7 and September 24 2009 the panels were working for 246 hours total, about 1 hour 45 minutes each day on average. Between 18 May and today, 28 May 2010, they have operated for 56 hours, an average of about 5 hours 36 minutes a day. In addition, the water has been getting up to maximum temperature and has been working in clould as well as sunshine.
If it goes on like this then our gas bills will be even lower, which is great news.
We just need to make sure that squirrels/other wildlife don't take a fancy to the cable again!
