Only 1 till the wife and kids come home. For 9 hours a day, durring the week, there is the one light, one monitor, one computer, and the refridgerator on in my house. I am really looking forward to seeing my electric bill and how low it is now :D

It's 10:45am and we have 5 lights on + 3 computers.

Our hatred of the management + Utilities included rent = many lights on ALL the time

In the winter, we crank the heater on full and open the windows to regulate temp.

I know it's petty, but it puts a smile on my face.

3 for me...

I've got a floor lamp on in my computer room (25 watt bulb), a nightlight in my kitchen, and a second nightlight in my living room.

3: 1 Florescant, 1 Halogen desklamp, 1 Flourescant Downstairs over the sink. (Lives in ~1800sqft home).

naw, the light switches in my apartment are just really poorly located.

having night lights in my living room and kitchen that turn on automatically in the dark give me just enough light to see by when coming home from work that I can walk from my door into the kitchen with my arms full of groceries without worrying about tripping over something or fumbling for a light :)
