Nope, i did had it lower before, but i had to pay afterwards.

Dump the house, the wife and go live in a small apartment like saus You could kill your way to it Cool Face

On a more serious note: Saus check how much you pay KW/H and calculate it. I highly doubt it's normal. It's just a tad too high for the way you live. Because that is not expensive... that is overly expensive.

Edit: Never mind you just took a higher plan so you wouldn't have to pay more at the end of the year. Sounds more normal then

just did a check with an hour in between.

14196.0kWh, 1 hour later 14196.4kWh, so that should be ~9.6kWh per day x 365 = 3504kWh per year / 12 = 292kWh per month..

Ofc this is only a rough calculation and since i got 2 meters (one for night- and one for daytime), it could be completely off ofc..

I can't caluclate how much it would cost me, since i don't even know what fucking contract i got with them, plus the gas, how much of it i use and the costs of that..

So i guess there is something wrong..

This is what it was last week and under it was from yesterday, exactly a week later.
Night - Day
020478 - 014196
020530 - 014236

(i didn't bother going behind the comma.)
That's 92kWh per week, which results in 4784kWh per year.
The average here (according to Nuon), for a 1 person household is about 2400kWh per year..
Mine is slightly above the average of a 4 person household..
Tho i did have the heater on this week quite often, so maybe i should take another photo next week and see how much the difference is.

Edit: just called my mom, and my stepfather is coming over this weekend and measure what could be causing this much power drainage..

Good luck hunting it down.

We had a good ~9 years!

Even tho i left it on 24/7 in it's final weeks, it went off by itself last night.
Now it displays image for about ~1sec and instantly goes off again Sad
