Ok so hopefully the math is right with the bill for 1 month at 225$.
This sample is based on lighting wattage ONLY, not fans or other goodies.
my daily kwh usage is 17.33. 17.33 x 30days = 519.9
$225.00 divided by 519.9 = .43cents (its an odd number but rounded off)
so its costing .43 cents a khw to run my shizzle.
.43 x 17.33 = 7.4519
from what i figure its costing me around $7.45 a day to run everything from what i have. kind costly. If i did all the math correctly haha.
Using an 18/6 schedule. my daily kwh usage is 14.544.
14.544 x .43 = $6.2539 $6.2539 x 30 = $187.617
What i figured from using 18/6 it would cost me $6.25 per day to run on that schedule, with a total monthly cost of $187.62, $225 - $187 = $38
Not a bad way to shave off some money for the bill! hope these figues help people get a ballpark for running their light systems between the 2 lighting schedules.
