Energy Units - What are yours?

Hi all,

How many ELECTRICITY units do you use per day?

We think ours are high - today we calculated (between 8:15am and 9:15pm) that we have used 25 units.

The only thing that's strange about our house is that we have solar panels that heat the water.

How many units do you use per day?

We have just invested in an energy monitor (should be here in a few days) so we should be able to pin down some better readings.

Cheers
Lee

PS - Thought the light bulb was rather apt!

Bah, you've got me wondering now ... I'll check the leccy meter tomorrow and let you know.

I reckon you need to give a 24 hour amount though, some people deliberately use overnight electricity (storage heaters) and we often run the bread maker and dishwasher overnight.

9 units.

We use an average of 8 to 10 units a day (over 24 hours)

do you have a LOT of high power light bulbs on?
