SteamyTea

Yes please. I could rig it up to @joe90's MVHR that I stuck a RPi on.

Any help https://assets.publishing.service.gov.uk/government/uploads/system/uploads/attachment_data/file/456656/domestic_ventilation_compliance_guide_2010.pdf

https://randomnerdtutorials.com/micropython-ds18b20-esp32-esp8266/ Yes they can.

I have run 7 sensors on a 10 metre cable. I may have changed the resistor, can't remember which way though. As a RPI Zero W is only a tenner, may be easier to use a few more. Or use some ESP8266, pretty sure they can take a DS18B20's, can certainly take the DHTs. There is also the BME280's, they do temp, RH and pressure. What would be nice is a simple chart, one that can show all records, monthly, weekly, daily and hourly at the touch of a button, or a swipe of the screen. One problem with charts of a phone is that they are so small that they are hard to read. So may need stacked y-axis to show different sensors. Not sure how easy that is to do.

Consider DHT22s, they show the RH as well. It is easy to get the numbers showing, but I have not yet found any code (that I understand) that shows a real time chart. Seems that most of the stuff online wants to push it though a database package somewhere along the line. A nice, simple bit of Python is what is wanted, maybe @Ed Davies could knock some up for us all.

More a case of not physically, or financially, viable.

Not far off how north you are.

When the sun is at a low altitude, it is passing though more of the atmosphere, that reduces the power. Not a lot you can do about that. When modules were expensive, I looked into, and did a few experiments with movable mirrors, was still cheaper to just add an extra module. If you have a ground mounted system, you could increase the angle, but you run the risk of getting shading. alternatively, you could lay the modules flat to the ground, that can increase yield, but not power much. Does collect more dirt on them.

It all depends if you want to increase the probability of maximum power (the W) at a particular time, or maximum yield (the kWh) over the winter months. All you need to do is some fairly basic (but boring) trigonometry. Start by getting the azimuth and altitude angles of the sun.

You will get the same nonsense answers wherever you put it.

Use the same password for everything. I keep all my passwords in an encrypted file. Forgot the password. So that was pointless.

Did you set a password when you first installed Mint?

Yes. Altitude plays a part, would be nice to see the criteria that was used to make that chart.

I have heard the same argument about old cars, that must be why I am surrounded by Morris Minors, Austin Minis, Ford Populars... It is amazing how the ghost of Barrett Homes is still with us. The World In Action expose was in 1983.

Only if they learnt from all the last schemes we have had. I think if councils could nominate areas of land that could be used for solar or wind farms and DNOs gave access to connection possibilities, there would be less mucking about at the beginning. But what we will end up with is the usual over complicated, confusing and contrary system that seems set up to stop things.

Or pipe dreams. I see the LDs what to spend £6bn on insulation and low carbon heating. Wish I could sort my house out for £200 (assuming spread evenly over 30 million homes). I think UKIP have the most realistic expectations of what is going to happen in the next parliamentary term. Tim Hartford did a bit on the Beeb. https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000bx15 and https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/m000c4pc

Good stuff, nothing wrong with that at all. Can see it being set to music one day.

Ah, the real Queen's Poet. Did he every write anything about building a home disaster.

Don't they swap the power between 'rings' when more than two are on. And isn't it 10A for a continuous load on a socket?

When people talk about me, do they say 'SteamyTea the boat builder', no. Do they say 'SteamyTea the chef', no. But one sheep.

Sounds like you are cooking a parrot, a live parrot.

So did Darth Vader.

That why it sounded like another 4 letter word beginning in C. You need a proper West Country accent, just like they have in Scunthorpe.

Welcome. I ache all over and not building. So probably nothing to do with it. I have 5 pairs of glasses, it is annoying when I sit down to read and then realise my nose is holding up my driving glasses.
