The manual states that power consumption is 11W and my electricity cost is
It pulls
Yes, Sorry, GF - I was just going to change it from
So this equates to
So this equates to
Not wishing to contradict the Don.... (or his boys)Are you sure about that? seems a bit steep to me? ?:|
Electricity is sold by the Kilowatt/Hour.
For 1kWh the 11watt pump would run for 1000/11 = 90.9hours.
in a year there are 365*24 = 8760hours.
so during a year this pump would use 8760/90.9 = 96.4 kWh (approx)
So we will have to buy 96.4 units of electricity....
which do actually vary dependant upon how much you use..
e.g. so many units charged @ higher rate then drops to lower rate. (this can be checked off you bill)
typically these are around 10p & 17p {give or take +/-2p}
so for example at the higher rate....
96.4 units * 17p =
you know, I kinda worked this out in my head and thought no way, its no where near enough i musta worked it out a week and then decided i had put a decimal point wrong somewhere.....10w=100hrs@15p/hr=4days
15pX100=
So this equates to
Nice idea..Erm, why dont you use a solar panel to run the pond stuff?
So thats how your boys can always afford to dress so smart!Clearly the Don has miscalculated here, removing my boys Taxes, gives a more realistic price.(As indicated by SL)

500w halogen floodlight - aimed at the solar panel - should provide enough illumination.Nice idea..B)
