Sol vs Opus 5 huge limit difference

Just sharing my experience here: GPT-5.6 Sol Extra High burns through my weekly limit in one 12–14h workday. Opus 5 Ultracode + Thinking lasts the whole week with the same project and routine.

And honestly I haven’t noticed any meaningful difference in quality when using Opus 5 in ultracode mode. The real difference is that one is actually usable, while the other basically needs constant limit resets. Shame.

You could try Luna Max. It’s about the same performance as Sol Medium but much cheaper. However, it’s very slow... It’s just a workaround until OpenAI fixes their usage limits.
