thankyou for the reply :-)
based on my tariff.
20 x 100 watts = 2000W = 2 kW.
At 12p per Kw/hr it costs 12p to run 1 kW for an hour
So 24p for an hour at 2 kW
So 8p for 2 kW for 20 mins
Just so long as I don't want much.
Not quite. You will have to add the £100's it costs to buy the machine that gives you skin cancer.
At those prices, a one bar electric fire (1,000W) for an hour would cost £5-£6! Would you really expect to pay that much for your electricity?
Just give it time - if the 'Green Brigade' have their way :rotfl:
