So i am running 150 watts of CFL in my closet grow room (2' by 3.5') and i am wondering how much it will add to the energy bill. I do not pay the electric bill so i can not see what i am charged per KWh(kilowatt hour) I am wondering if anybody knows Aprx. how much electricity costs in the southern ventura county Area.
thanks.

I use $ .15 per KWH as a national average. I believe it's a little less than that though at $ .13 KWH. 1000 watts = (1) KW

So ....150 W x 12hours = 1.8 x $ .15 = less than $ .30 a day or less than $9 per month
....150 W x 24 hours = 3.6 x $ .15 = less than $ .60 a day or less than $18 per month


If I made I mistake by what I understand, let me know.

Anytime HTB!

I was a little buzzed at the time, so I will make it a little more clear in case anybody else is trying to figure this out.
