My Electric Bill
Guys, Im shitting my pants! I just got my first electric bill since i started growing and its $121.00! My bill before this one was only $88. My usage for this month was 1,119 kwh, last month was only 753. Im running a 600w digital ballast system with an inline fan for the cooltube and a small desk-top fan for the plants.
Will this bill raise suspicion at the power company? Where i live (in the US) its warm right now so Im fucked when the summer comes and i gotta run my central-air conditioner. Am i ok or should i abort the operation before the man comes knocking?

If you get your bill and pay it who cares. I have a floo heater that is 1500 watts running for 8 hours a day...plus my 400w... plus my real heat...
There are numberous appliances that take WAY more electricty... like a new fridge/freezer/computer/fish tank/reptile light/ gaming systems..... It would have to spike hundreds of $ or more for anyone to even think about noticing.... not to mention you are paying the bill.... poeple who get fucked with electricity bills have to get their bills through their landlord... trust me, the power company is not going to be suspeicious... all they care about is you paying them more money. Pay it on time and your fine. Last edited by Me$$iah; 02-16-2007 at 10:47 PM.. |

Shit, my electric bill jumped $80 in December just from my Christmas lights. I wouldn't worry too much about that baby jump.

it's not a big problem.
if you want, cut out some other waist around your house, don't leave lights on. cook more often with your BBQ, get some compact fluorescents for your lamps, ect. really it's not a big raise.
