1000w $$ amount per day help

1000w mh , how much does it cost you guys to run per day ? either 18/6 or 20/4 schedule.

scratch that, i'm too high to decide if i did the math right

edit: after thinking about it, I believe that its 2.7$ per day for me on 18/6

this should help if you know the kilowatt per hour you are being charged...General Hydroponics - Hydroponic Calculator, Use this calculator on your page!

right on . just mounted it up above my 15 gal pots. im switching from mg soil to organic. is that ok ? or should i get vermiculite and perilite tommorow and hold off tonight.

check out this man hope it gives you your answer Super-Grow Electricity Costs Calculator

1000w bulb = 1 kilowatt

In the US most people pay -ballpark- $.015 per Kilowatt Hour.

Sooo...at 18h on per day thats 18 Kw at 1.5 cents...which is 27 cents per day.

20h per day would cost 30 cents per day.

I work for the power company and can help you guys outs in this matter..

we bill in KWH.. for instance I'll use .075 as our base KWH charge


1000 Watts x (how many hours used in a day) 18HR/ x (how many days in a month) 31 = 558000/ 1000 = 558

I divided by 1000 cause thats what is equal to 1 KWH.

so I take 558 x (KWH rate) 0.075 = $41.85 a month..

thats just for one 1000 watt bulb running 18 hrs a day for 31 days... hope this helps guys

and 1.5 cents per KWH is incredible deal most people pay in the range of 5+ cents per KWH which is also including delivery charge.
