I have built\u00a0my first online electricity calculator. It’s very simple and there are lots of similar calculators out there but it’s a start.<\/p>\n

Behold:\u00a0Electricity Calculator<\/a><\/p>\n

Here’s how it works. Let’s say you are\u00a0wondering how much it would cost to run a nightlight if you leave it on all the time. This nightlight<\/a> has 0.2 watt LED, so you enter 0.2 as\u00a0wattage.<\/p>\n

\"nightlight\"<\/p>\n

Next you enter 24 as the number of hours per day.\u00a0Here in Australia we pay\u00a030 cents per kilowatt-hour on average. The calculator gives you the result: the running cost would be $0.53 per year.<\/p>\n

Another example. We have 6 light bulbs in our kitchen. They are\u00a0CFLs (of course) and 14 watt each.<\/p>\n

\"light-bulb\"<\/p>\n

So in total they use 6 * 14 = 84 watt. We have them on for about 3 hours per day. We pay 40 cents per kilowatt-hour. According to the calculator the kitchen lighting cost us $3.02 per month or\u00a0$36.79 per year.<\/p>\n
