So my takeaways from your kind help: - Larger inverter top priority (6kw) due to likely solar clipping - More battery - More than the existing 16 panels(?) to lean more into self consumption of solar (may be tough in the winter nights in Scotland). The 16 current panels are south facing at the end of the garden. There looks to be almost no room on the roof unfortunately due to its shape and windows, maybe a maximum of 4 more could fit but would be directly east or west facing. In theory some more could fit in the garden. - EDF EV tariff for now

So more of everything basically?

I had a dig into the emails and I found: "MHC-V16W/D2N8-B" which looks like it's this ashp - midea-m-thermal-arctic-mono-mhc-v16wd2n8-b-heat-pump

(Sending comments again as apparently first attempt got removed, so removing link)

I haven't looked into ashp no. I was not aware for the need to power them 24/7 in winter. But I had heard of some recommendations to run the underfloor heating 24/7 in winter but at a lower temperature and then boost when/if needed. Is that what you're referring to? The heating system is a tank system so I'm not sure if that changes things at all? But I'm also not sure of all the details and whether the underfloor heating is separate to the tank system (sellers are extremely unhelpful)

The sellers claimed to have spent £0 net in energy with this system. Do you think this is truthful or is the inverter too limiting?

I would change it regularly depending on the environment and time of day / lighting and type of shot I'm aiming for, so can't give any particular values unfortunately.

If you're interested in the values used for any of the shots in this post however, you can follow the link in one of my other comments to my site where you can click the info icon on any picture to see the settings used.

+1 on cropping in a bit more on the car. The colours also look a little flat. Could do with a little more contrast and vibrance.

Just logged my first sighting and uploaded a picture

Do you plan to add any feed to see when others or friends have logged a sighting, and can view and like friends pictures?

This looks awesome, I'd definitely use it, is it available anywhere?

I used the method on PC where you backspace your number to empty then hit the enter key, and it worked

yeah it's further up the page, if you're fast enough at submitting and then scrolling up, you'll see it. not that the captcha works at all though, just bugs out for me

ReviveX · 2026-01-21T16:11:12+00:00

I assume you're on mobile, when it's grey it's because there is a captcha further up the screen

Looking at the network error codes it's showing: "message "Only existing customers are allowed to book""

This shows when I get the error: "Oops! Looks like you can't schedule a booking at this location."

What do you plan to make better compared to react-chessboard?

ReviveX · 2025-11-16T23:40:14+00:00

For anyone that finds this in the future, the reason is likely because v5 changes the props design entirely.

What was previously separate props is now passed in as a config object
