I haven't really checked mine but I just ordered a 400w HPS and according to this calculator....
SH Hydroponics, Inc. > Hydroponics Calculator
12h,30days and electric is .10 per Kw/h
I should go up $16.56

yea with that set up you don't have to worry about the electric bill you probably won't even notice a difference
