If I use the 45w--150w coil lights, how much will it jack up my electric bill? Per light? Monthly? I am currently using 2, but have 6 more.. It's hard for me to determine how much they are adding to my bill because I have electric heat w/seperate thermostats for each room and the bill is always kinda high during the winter. Please let me know ASAP, so if not too expensive I can get my other lights into my growbox. Thanks alot.. Sorry if question is stupid.

This might help. You will have to look at your meter:

Look on your electric bill for the price per kw. there are a 1000w in a kw. So multiply a x b x c = Price per month
a= length of time lights are on, in hours
b= total combined watts, for all lights on ( if your total wattge is 400 then you multiply times .4)
c= price per kw hour
You also could then figure out the sales tax if any and I dont know about you but I also pay a delivery charge per kw hour. All this info will be on your bill.

Thanks for the replys... Is there any way to estimate how much it will cost before running the lights for a month? The lights are 45w of energy used per bulb. So is that the same as using a regular 45w light bulb? I feel really dumb for asking but, whatever.. Thanks again.
