RE: Electricity Bill



Ahh - the Fridge freezer in the garage *may* be a factor for the =A3100
rise (bearing in mind that a large % of that will be based on previous
quarters lower estimates).
I have a FF in the garage which had the fridge part pumped up to 6
(max). The fridge is used only for beer and was cranked up for a party
in June. The hotter it is in the garge then the harder the FF will have
to work to maintain the low temperatures. Gargae is currently 3-4
degrees C hotter than outside.

My Monitors have PowerSave features in use and I often turn them off at
night anyway, so not convinced what the PC will use - will test tonight.

Is it worthwhile sticking an appliance module on the TV and powering it
on and off with Pronto as part of the System on/off macros? I know it
will take more time to startup but it may save a bit as the TV is often
only on for 2-3 hours per day at most.
