how do I figure the cost of watts?
Can you help me figure this out. I know it should be fairly simple but I just don't seem to get it. Lets say I have a Kill A Watt. I plug something into that Kill A Watt and it reads 55 watts. How ...

Thanks for the quick replies. So to see if I have it correct 200 watts would be
200 x 24 x 30 = 144000 watt HOURS
I then divide by 1000 or in my thinking move the decimal point three to the left for 144 kilowatt HOURS. I then multiply 144 x .20 to get $28.80 a month.
I can check my this by using horsepullers slightly different method.
200/1000=.2kw
.2kw x 24 x 30 = 144 kw in a 30 day period.
I then multiply 144 x .2 = 28.8 which is the same answer as Naturists method.
This is awesome, thanks for the help on it. :B Figuring this out has puzzled me for a long time.
