Electricity Bills Information - Part 3
Mar 4

Why the heck are they screwing people over BIG time? $700 bill on a 2 bedroom? WHY?

The first step is to work out what is using this much energy. Power meters can be bought for a whole building (~$100) or a power point (~$30). You can get real time values or daily, weekly, monthly totals. Find out how much standby energy you use. Find out how much energy is spent on hot water, fridges, entertainment. The building meter updates every 6 seconds on a indoor portable wireless display unit. Turn on or off any device and see the change in consumption. The meter can show in kWh or dollars per hour.
Check the consumption of heating, cooling and hot water. Check for hot water leaks. They are the largest consumers.

I have a review of meters on my website at

i dont know where your from but an electricity company in texas wants to put in eleven coal plants in texas. our air is extremly dirty already.we also have the cement capitol here which has killed and sickened thousands of children including my own.

You know if you wanna put your money where your mouth is get some solar panels or wind catchers on your property. Federal law say the energy company has to pay you if you are producing more electricity then you are using.

outside their houses I mean what about their electrical bills, aren’t they going to rise if you have that many Christmas lights on?

It would be very miserable if everyone stopped putting up Christmas lights because of the electricity prices! "Tis the season to be jolly"… and all that =)

You get charged by the kilowatt so it doesn’t matter when you use it.
