kk, glad you corroborated my observations. I am no expert in this for sure. I am just tired of all of the comments I get from visitors to the website about how my readings exceed theoretical max. I could remove the max, but that doesn't seem fun.
I do not have the expertise to validate the way weewx calculates it nor am I even competent in Python, but for those who may, here is a link to the code: https://github.com/weewx/weewx/blob/d91635f3bc429f906d1f084c6a6bc8ee09fa1a27/bin/weewx/wxformulas.py#L332 On Sunday, December 20, 2020 at 1:26:31 PM UTC-5 kk44...@gmail.com wrote: > I found that thread interesting, so I added the column "maxSolarRad", too. > > [image: dayradiation.png] > Readings of the console and the WeatherLinkLive device are quite the same. > And the readings of "radiation" are higher than "maxSolarRad".
