Some perspective. Almost exactly three years ago (8 Aug 06) I did the very same test and my average was 278W. Previous tests on same circuit:
Pre-accident:
8 Aug 06: 278W
13 Sep 06: 315W
1 Nov 06: 324W
5 Dec 06: 326W
Post accident:
23 Sep 08: 248W
16 Dec 08: 287W
18 Aug 09: 299W
Yeah, well maybe I needed a bit more than a cup of tea and half a bowl of cornflakes for brekky and two jelly snakes beforehand.swampy1970 said:Sweet! Nice improvement their Alex.
300+ watts on that circuit is gonna be seen real soon!

1st half (294W) was 10W less than 2nd half (304W).
BTW, my CTL that day was 69 TSS/day and my TSB was -31.
MAP test tomorrow. This will be interesting. I am hoping for 400W+ but by rights, I shouldn't get that high (it's possible but would be atypical). MAP usually needs a bit more freshness than TT tests.

I don't mind being atypical at times.
That, by the way, is an all time PB (pre- and post-accident).

XXXX is more common but mostly in Queensland where it originated.swampy1970 said:Really? LOL. What about Castlemaine XXXX? That used to be touted as an Aussie beer back in England. Personally, after drinking a can I imagined Koala p1ss would taste about the same...
