So should I scrap the oil filled radiator? I heard that I really want to keep my humidity and temps in check?

My mortgage, all my bills and car insurance costs less than this monthly

I run 2 rooms at about 6000 watts total with a heater in each.

I spent thousands of dollars on this new setup thinking it would cost less electric, but it's actually costing more than double of a HPS light

I honestly think there is something else making your wheel spin. Heaters really eat up the juice idk but doesn’t sound right to me

I had 100 dollars on my electric last week and woke up this morning with no electric. I thought I was dreaming. lol

 

[bam0813]

Id try and make sure your meter isn’t faulty idk thats crazy

Maybe if I swap out the 1,000 watt oil filled radiator for a 500watt oil filled radiator that will reduce the costs by 50%?

 

[bam0813]

Of the heater

 

[harrychilds]

I think my problem is that the oil filled radiator is pulling 1,000 watts, even turned down on a low setting it's still pulling 1,000 watts. And if 1kwh equals say 20 cents then every 10 hours it's using 2 dollars, so every day it's using about 4 or 5 dollars?

I just checked with the wife on our electric and gas bills. We are on a averaging program and have been for 30 years with our utility companies. Electricity $170 a month and Nat. Gas $65 a month. Just pay the bills and move on...

Of the heater

Yeah I'm thinking that if I swap the heater out for a 500watt heater it will save 50% of the electric being used? I'm only running it on low, it's literally pulling 1,000 watts just to warm it up by 2 celsius
