How High Is Your Electric Bill???

[Chelito1234]

$$$30,000 lol, i have solar panels on my roof. It is the best thing ever...
But if i have to say a number, i would say around 250 to 300.

$390ish for us. 2700 sq/ft 2 story house. Not sure how much exactly is to the reef though. Running 2 250w magnetic ballasts. Switching to electronic tomorrow and anxious to see if I will notice any difference. Then again, it's almost AC time!

My 125g costs about $30-$40 a month last time I checked. My 20g costs around $6/mo

If you didn't know RC has a nice calculator for this. Just make sure you change the KWH rate to what your electric bill says (mine is only $.07)

Down here in the V.I. we are up to $.335 pr kwh after you take in all the charges. All the generators at the power plant runns on fuel oil so you know what that means.

My tank & house runs ~$500 per month for electricity, we are lucky in CO we only pay ~8¢ per KWH out here.

I AVG BETWEEN 275-325 A MONTH--NEVER THOUGHT ABOUT HOW MUCH MY 58'' PLASMA USES, I WAS THINKING IT WAS ALL MY REEF AS I GOT BOTH AROUND THE SAME TIME.
