I guess investigating solar power around the winter solstice is the ultimate in optimism
The sensors /strain gauges seem to be a problem
I might be inclined to zero them at the start of each day then add a fixed value and monitor the deviation instead
They also seem to have some issues with stability even with small temperature shifts

The polyhive it's monitoring would cost less than that
He has done some good work though sorting things out
