emaytiti Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Hey guys...just found out that our power bill is huge compared to other households - normal household uses 800 units a month - we use 1600 units a month. Anyone know of a way or a certain bulb that works to keep power down? Ideas or suggestions welcome. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alanmin4304 Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 It is about heat so the only way to save money is to use less heat by using lots of insulation. If you use heaters or light bulbs you are after the heat. With using light bulbs for heat you may be paying for light that you don't need.

Ira Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 you can`t put a price on your hobby!! Cause if you kept track of how much you've spent you'd be horrified into giving it up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
