Hi Ian,
Yes there was a normal outburst peaking on the 19th peaking at about 13.5 and returning to 15 on subsequent days. Thanks for the observation.
However, Still no super outburst . So we are at 110 days since the last superoutburst – which is the longest wait yet.
Seems as if the flow of material from the donor star is not stable for V1159 Ori.
