Mine was not bad at all, actually went down! Though I don't turn on my heat/air unit in my townhouse because I like it cold. Though its been in the 70's again, damn NC weather, ups and downs. I've been enjoying the snowboarding weather and then it warms up again... ugh!

Hi gibsonnova,

Welcome to Folding!! To your comment about the electric bill:

"lol cant wait to see the electric bill!"

Here's is what I've found after folding for almost 2 years and over the past year with 17 rigs in two separate homes (mine and my brothers). Comparing bills from the past year (like for like) - each rig runs about $7.00 dollars per month or .23 cents per day (.01 per hour) running 24/7. That's based on a 30 day month. I live on the Western side of Michigan with Consumers Energy as the provider of the electricity... So your results may or will be different. I just thought you'd like to know from one persons actual usage.

For me it's a good bargain as it relates to future medical science and medical cures.
.09 per hour for the 9 rigs in my house, I will gladly pay.

I hope this helped, :-)

Hi biatchi,

Actually... 5 rigs are in a room with all the windows open and the heater vent blocked off. In Michigan that means the room stays a nice 45-50degF... Refrigerator temps, natural cooling The overclocks have gone up as well...
3 rigs are in my office/computer room/junk room... Temps are 64degF in there... Nice!

So heating bills - No worries! Only two bedrooms upstairs and the entire downstairs get any heat. But my wife doesn't get it at all. Imagine that...

Take care, :-)

Nice.In my experience the missus never gets any of the computer stuff. Shoes and handbags are a completley different matter though!
