this is what happens when you have a house full of electronics, then move back in with your parents and cram it all into one room

yeah it's pretty nasty. i'm the one that pays it though, and the cable bill. 2200 sq ft + houston summer + 3 people who like it cold in the house + tons of electronics that werent there before = $350 elec bill. i of course had to get HD service, cable internet, etc, so that bill is like $150. still obviously cheaper than throwing cash away into an apt. and i kept my house in lubbock as a rental property so that is a nice extra income too.
i did grab a "kill-a-watt", little device you plug into the wall, plug something else into it, and it monitors your elec usage. my main, big computer + router + switch + 2x 20" panels + a cable box = about $15/month in electricity. not quite as bad as I'd thought. i know the heat the put off makes the AC run a little harder, but it's prob not all that much and would reverse in the winter time. killawatt = http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx...N82E16882715001 |
