@ zen I was wrong. It's double. I know 10 x is scary. I read the bill wrong.
I've never really paid much attention to it except when I saw the decrepancy between 74 and 734 I didn't know to subtract one from the other. That's my kilowatt hours. Which is still too high.


@Bruce. I went and double checked against what you said.

No it has not done anything other than raise my bill. 2010 they will have usage information.

I just went back and looked at prior bills. The meters reset so the 74 was from the last reading. I didn't look closely enough. It says I used 660 kilowatts from November to December but Oct to November was 358 kilowatts which has been ball park for me. The previous months have been 270s average. So you are right bruce I should be running between 400-500 but never close to 700 kilowatt hours in a month which 660 kwhr is double.




I hope I just forgot to shut a high powered light off all month last month.(sarc)

My kid did have insomnia last month. Can someone being up all night double the energy use? I hope so. At least it would explain it.

I am looking at the differences. I know the meters reset but am I seeing a too large a gap in numbers?
