A AnotherGoldenTeapot Advanced Reefer Rating - 0% 0 0 0 Sep 18, 2001 #3 Total power is going to be say 2 x 175w + 100w (for inefficency of the ballasts) = 450w per hour. Assuming 12 hours a day that's 164 kW/h per month. Say you pay 10 cents per kW/h then you're adding $16 to your monthly power bill.
