Yes 24/KWH a day..[|)] but.... we have 4 20 somethings here until mid Aug with us and their friends a night here and there. I asked my brother - since almost all his kids were here for the summer - when is his checkbook coming to visit?? hahaha So $300/6 = $50 a piece which is about where punamom said she was at.
We still do have a elec water heater but we are adding a solar homemade system for the outside shower. We pretty much quit doing any hot water laundry 'cept for socks. Since we have a elec range and havent swapped it out yet, we have been BBQ'ing a lot and it has a burner on the side that we use. Personally, I am glad to BBQ then the house doesnt get hot too! (and SB and my nephew seem to love to do it so I cook less!! haha)
