:Just out of interest Ross - how many 'person' household & what capacity

Ours is a 2 person household. We are very economical with our electricity
consumption and we don't have any gas appliances. The computer, TV and frig take
most and we average around 6 units per day import. When the missus does a roast

1.5kW. On a sunny spring day I usually import around 4-5 units and export 7-8,
depending....
