Current Cost home electicity usage monitor

Wednesday, February 25, 2009

Ackers bought me a Current Cost Cc128 for my birthday and I’m absolutely stunned to see that we’re using ~ 900 Watts ambient. Obscene.

Shutting my home desktop down, something I never do (!), reduces it down a bit but I’m sure we should be < 300 Watts as a default. Switching the electric oven on spikes it to over 3 KWatts.

Methinks a massive audit on our electricity usage is needed, urgently.

*all optional items switched off.
