"I believe that as more of us use and report on our solar that we will find that there are different outcomes depending on our choices.

Exactly! Real world data, collected in a well documented fashion, for realistic comparison. Things to consider; panel temperature, time of day, battery soc, elevation, panel type, install, etc. But many are not willing to put in the necessary effort. It's easier to just make claims that cannot be easily verified or dismissed. And then there are those who simply will not accept any amount of real world evidence, claiming it's purely anecdotal. Nevertheless, inquiring minds would like to know.
