Does anyone know what our power rate is per KWh?

I believe a good estimate is about $0.06/KWH

Spend more money so you can save some?

Of course, it's the American Way. I definitely was not implying for him to buy it though. I was looking for a replacement bulb for the fish tank and saw it.

I've seen that but I am afraid to find out my usage.

Probably already know this, but:
Watts x Hours used / 1000 = kwh
kwh * .07 = costs
I left some other power eaters out, but I figure mine is somewhere close to $30-$35 a month
Watts x Hours used / 1000 = kwh
kwh * .07 = costs
Code: Select all
Watts Hours Kwh Costs/Day Costs/Month
Halides 750 10 7.5 0.45 13.5
VHO 320 12 3.84 0.2304 6.912
Pumps 120 24 2.88 0.1728 5.184
Heater 300 1 0.3 0.018 0.54
Total $26.13 a month
