How much power do your panels produce in a day?

[Wh05apk]

Just wondered what people were getting out of their panels, I think I have 420w on the roof, and have peaked at 312w today, so roughly 75% of their max, and still hitting 182w, so far today produced 1.27kw, so possibly should get to 1.4kw in total today, are these figures good/bad? what are you getting?

My 175w panel only got to 48w peak today. But that's because the van is on the drive, so the battery isn't that flat. By the time it got some good sun on it, the charge rate had already dropped to absorption mode.

I ran the fridge for a few hours on battery this morning to give some capacity

I have 2 x Victron 215w 24v panels hooked up to a Victron Smart 100/30 controller, so far the most daily output to date has been 1.61kw but would have produce quite a bit more but the batteries were fully charged

Last summer with a single 100 watt panel and Victron MPPT I regularly saw around 30-40 amps a day here in the UK, albeit last summer's weather was exceptionally good.
Later this afternoon I am fitting a second 100 watt panel as this year I am using more electric.
I expect to see 60-80 amps a day, weather dependent and usage of course.

In summer I can harvest as much as 6 times of rated panel in daily energy. This time of year 3-4 times the panel rating its pretty good.

I fitted a second 100 watt panel on Saturday and as some hazy sunshine has just come out I just put a load on the batteries to check that I had doubled my solar.
Victron app showed 90 watts and 5.8 amps going into the batteries so considering it's early April and the weather is not wall to wall sun I'm pretty sure I've doubled my solar production

Mine have produced about 1.3 to 1.4 kW a day, so seems to be inline with others, despite today's cloud, they are producing 350w when the sun breaks through.

I've got 3x100W in series which, when the rain stopped around 12:30, and the sun deigned to make an appearance, peaked at 13A into the batteries. So far today 420Wh but was almost 1Kwh a few days ago for the day. I've had to swap to the hob from the travel kettle for brewing up as the last couple of days have hammered the batteries a bit.

Yet again today we have produced nearly 1. 4kw about 3x panel size, which is surprising given the cloudy conditions, when the sun came out it was obviously powerful, we also thought the gas kettle would have to reappear, but now sitting at 97% and still a trickle going in, so inverter will be working again.

No idea as I no longer pay attention to it but my 1100w of panels has my 700ah batteries fully charged by around 1pm . Fridge is on constant 240v so it takes a bit longer.

Last 4 days, Inc today consistently 500W from my single 150W panel which is max I can get on roof and Victron controller to lithium.

Today, very briefly it peaked at 148W in a sunny lunchtime moment but weather generally has been mixed. Battery capacity not the limitation as currently on 60% having recharged ebike via inverter.
