does anyone know how much my electricity bill is gonna go up with a 1/3 hp chiller and 2 400 w mh bulbs

you need to add the total wattsxhr runx 30 days then divide by a 1000, that will give you kilowatts hrs used then mutiply that by the cost of electricity in your town.

Depends on how long they are on etc. I estemate $15 a month average from where you are located.

Don't think about how much it's gonna cost and don't think about how much you have spent. If you can help it burn all reciepts.
