The last I checked it was $0.04 per kwh here. I had my little tester
set at $0.05 per kWh. But I just said I ran it approximately two
hours. I don't know what the actual time period was.

<p>HEI has a very screwy formula to calculate elec bills. But typically,
we pay about 13 cents per KWH. From your data, it appears that the
elec rate is less than 4 cents per KWH.

<pre wrap="">I tested my desktop computer today and found out that the maximum
wattage consumed is 166. That equates to about $0.15 a day if it were
left on for the full 24 hours. During the time I ran the test which was
a few hours the operating cost was just one penny. But that's at Denver
utility rates and there's lots of coal near here. Does anyone know the
cost of a kilowatt hour in Hawaii?
