electric bill last month was 179$ and that was after i bought my hps and it only ran for about a week or two of this bill. just checked my energy ussage, i have 10 days left on my bill cycle and im at 167$ WHAT THE FUCK? recirc fans? ac? i decided to take some cfls down for this reason.
everything i have running
A/C [im in arizona so its hot as fuck] outdoors temps are 90-95 day and 75-85 at night for this season. i run it at 78 durring the day and run it at 70 at night. [i drop to 70 degrees once my hps come on or my room gets above 85 degrees.] so this is on a 70degree 12hrs 78degree 12 hrs
400w HPS 12hours on 12 hours off
150 combined wats of cfl for my veg running at 24 hours.
1 fan for each room eaqualing two running both at 24 hours.
1 small humidifier.
i personally feel its the ac. i constantly unscrew bulbs in my house to cut down on inefficient energy ussage to save for the heavy lighting.
