bout 150-200 month. But that all depends on how much I use my 7'x5'x6' Powdercoat oven. 18,000W spins the meter pretty fast LOL

House wide, Approx $50/month

I would cry if I got that bill in the mail.


On another note I wonder how much of everyone's totals include delivery fees, etc. I just got another bill in the mail today and most of it was administration charges, delivery charges, transmission charges and a local access fee.

This is what I got in the mail
$35.15 total (electricity)
Local access fee 3.92
Distribution charge 7.99
Transmission charge 3.32
Administration charge 4.50

$19.73 of my bill was random charges and $15.42 is what I assume is actual usage. Also at the end it says "You saved $4.06 by using Enmax EasyMax". So I paid more in service fees then I did for an actual product...I think I should be ashamed.

from my enmax bill:

easymax 5 yr rate $64.96
all other charges $27.86

(total $92.82)

we live on the main floor of a house with 2 basement suites downstairs. one of the women is only home roughly 4 hours a night, the other woman comes/goes all day but the one who comes/goes leaves her lights on even when she's not home, leaves her bathroom fan on (drives me friggen mental cuz it echos throughout the back of the house), and there's a motion light with 2x75 watt floodlights that goes off at the smallest movement. a car drives by, the light goes on.

upstairs we have 2 pcs on 24-7, the tv on during the day, and the fish tank lights (something like 180watts combined). we pay 50% of the bill, the two women downstairs each pay 25%

I was able to make note of my historical electrical use and compare it to what happened when I turned the tank "On". The result....the tank costs me about $50 per month....over and above my usual household usage.
