hhh....ours was actually less during the summer. You know I think my neighbor grows too...and might be leaching our electricity...but I am nearly drunk too so I hate everyone...haha! As long as our bill here stays below 150 I will be happy. I think I can add another 400 watt mh light...yes, that would be great...

ffas,

Are you in a full size house with a Basement and Garage? If yes, 2K isn't bad. 2K is a couple of yard lights left on 24/7.

I'm in a one bedroom apartment, 2K would be high, for me.

so how much does a 400 watt hps cost to run???
Depends how you got it hooked up. Remember if your drawing alot of power off one circuit your meter will spin faster. You will see it make loops and spinning uneven. My power only went up about $25 give or take $10 from a 400w mh. I live in a small house though ive never seen a bill over $200. I also have a buddy that has a house a little bigger then mine using the same light he saw $60 increase. Anything will make your power bill go up leaving tv's on everything
