    We pay more for water than for electricity. However, we have only LED bulbs in the house, so all bathroom lights together are less than 20 Watts.

    Water is expensive and to clean it and pump it consumes a lot of electricity.

    I pay more for electricity than water.

    What is cheap, lecy is very expensive.

    If you are using a low light light bulb then it is about 20watts, so it has to be on for 50 hours or 2 solid days to use a kWh.
    So about 8p a day or 1p for 3 hours.
    So hardly worth bothering to get off your !!!! to switch it off!!

    There are more productive things to do with your time!!
