I'm with Epcor and all I can find is that is csts $14.90 a day. That is up from $6.89 a day last month.

Oh wait last month it was 9.95/kWh and this month it was 10.91/kWh

Sorry to hear about your power bill... ours is now like triple what it used to be before I lived here and before we had the tanks.

How does every one know what there tanks cost per month. I have tried those calculators and such. But i still get a very high bill. And the bill does not break out my tank for me. Since i have had a tank i have seen my bill increase quite a bit. But i cannot say my tank costs 200 a month or 50 a month, How do others come up with tank costs. It seams like every month enmax has a new fee for this or that.

Same here, after adding 4 powerheads, 2 250W MH, and the 6 bulb TekLight, the bill was $359! I'm with Enmax, so maybe I would have broke $400 with Direct Energy...

My gas, water electric combo bill (though easymax) was $570 last month (usually about $250 or so), due to them estimating everything since the summer and then finally going to read the meter in January, I called and chewed them a new (you know what) I knew that they were there reading the meter as they left the gate open AGAIN for the dogs to get loose as they always do, so reamed them out about that too. Hopefully your situation was like mine and it'll just be one really nasty bill to begin with and then be basically back to normal next month.

How the heck do you guys spend so much on electricity??? Do you keep all your lights/oven/dryer/dishwasher/etc. on 24 hours a day?
