I wish I had some sort of whiz-bang setup for that kind of coin! I just have two smallish tanks a 50g and a 20g but I'm running my halides for 12 hours which I think is a big factor.. the 20g with 1x175 and the 50g with 2x175. Eventually the 50 will be replaced by the 75 which will be 2x250+2x110, I'm not looking forward to THAT bill when that goes online. Aiyiyi.

Of course I am skewing the numbers somewhat because that's my total electricity -- so that includes everything, the furnace, the dehumidifier (I feel like an idiot having to run one of these I live in CALGARY for crying out loud -- what you guys call "10% humidity" we call "rain" [img]images/smiles/icon_biggrin.gif[/img] -- but I have no option otherwise my windows weep with the humidity of all the evap going on in the house!), etc.

What do you pay per kWh in Victoria? Where is your electricity coming from on the island? Is it hydro? I think Alberta's is coal and hydrocarbons mostly which I think tends to be more expensive than hydro...

How long are you running those 400W MH's, BTW? $50/month ... I'm jealous.
