Rise in electric Bill

[seahorseguy]

Has anyone really looked into how much their electric bill has gone up since adding their lights, skimmers, fliters, chillers, heaters, RO converter, powerheads, the list can go on and on. So what is your average increase in your electrically bill. Just interested.....i was surprised to see it was not that bad.....it only gone up like 25-30 bucks at the most.

In the summer, my electric bill went up about $100/month but that's with central air and it was a warm summer. There is definitely a larger electric bill all year. One of the downsides to this hobby. But if you were boating, you'd be paying for gas. So everything has a price.
