Bloomdido Posted October 9, 2009 Share Posted October 9, 2009 I worked out that it would cost 45 pence overnight if I hadn't turned off the computer, monitor and light @ .250 kilowatts per hour, before going to bed. I would guess a laptop on its own is about a quarter of that. 30 pence over 24 hours? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rupert_Baehr Posted April 3, 2010 Share Posted April 3, 2010 How much is electricity per KwH? If it's 25p and your laptop is burning 1 Kilowatt per hour you should get it (or at least the power supply unit) checked - There's something seriously wrong with it.
