see thats what i thought so i set my light cylce for the night

but where im at (dont care to say but its a major city on the east coast)

my electric is 12c per kw/h + 8c delivery charge per kw/h

so i pay 20c per kw/h

after i calculated my whole cab(400w hps +a coupl cfls + fans) it come out to just over .5 kw/h * 12 * 7days * 4 weeks

comes out to around $40-50 per month and thats just with a 400w set up

and it doesnt change at all between night and day
