Title: Message
Estimated pc consumption was about 30 quid assuming no monitor and power saving. Other stuff is negligible. My direct debits have never changed since starting this HA stuff

    I've just recently moved into new house, and I've managed to set up the bulk of my automation, (obviously I will never be finished, otherwise what else would I do with myself, or SWMBO for that matter).
 
 Anyway, to the point, does anyone think that having all this HA gear running 24/7 increases the electricity bill for example.. Do x10 modules have a significant current usage in idle states ? Does HV and comfort use much (no more than the telly in standby, or near abouits I would think). And what kind of consumption would a pc use running 24/7 (monitor off). Just typical vvalues, or has anyone any idea on wether or not the extra usage is a significant factor in the bills they get.
 
I cant compare previouse usage, as it is a new house.
 
Thanks,
Eamon
