Damn.. Our power bill went up by 10%. It probably has something to do with leaving three computers on 24/7 non stop 🙁 🙁
 
My power bill didnt change at all because we always have at least 5 computers running non-stop in my apartment.
 
I always leave my two computers running, so I don't know what the power bill would be like if they weren't (and I don't want to turn them off to find out 😉 ).
 
My power bill is up by 75% - yes that's almost double🙁

After next month, it should go back down
 
Mine has actually gone down over the past few months. One of the benefits of having all your kids either married and gone or at college all day! 🙂

I leave two run 24/7, but since the start of the race I've been running 5 at home 24/7. I'll have to look at the bill and see if there is a change. My bad for the TeAm's good!!😉
 
yo dude life is short and all you do in life is worry of bills that you will never pay off then when your on your death bed you going be really mad and sad knowing theres a lot of stuff you never did cause it would make you have bigger power bills........now if you just can't afford it then that's a differ storry.....time for better work.
 
Oh yeah i did not know what too vote so i did no. the thing is i have so many pc and other tech stuff that burns power i can not tell what makes the bill go up.........i just dont' worry of it and ah i also only make 6.25hr so haha i dont' have that much cash!
 
go find some weatherstripping and caulk at home depot or whatever passes for one up there in canada.
 
I remember in college the gas bill for our 3 bedroom house was $8.00 a month. We got a new roommate and the gas bill went up to $12.00 month so me and the other old roommate disconnected the gas heater!! We wore coats in the house all the time but it sure was cheap!!!

Now I run my SETI 24/7 and don't think anything about it. 🙂🙂🙂🙂

my computer provides enough heat to warm up the room. radiator is always off.
 
I have 6 running 24/7, I just turn the heat down alittle, the room where they reside is nice and toasty but the rest of the house is a little chilly.
 
There's no doubt that leaving "extra" appliances on will raise your power bill but in the end a PC doesn't suck that much power as long as you turn off the monitor.
