I find out it cost only P2 pesos or 0.04 dollars per hour to use the computer. If I used it 12 hours a day it would cost me around 24 pesos a day or .50 cents a day. If I earn 1 dollar a day here in mylot, I will have 50 pesos. So half will go to electricity half is my earning. Do you know the per hour consumption of your appliances?

Is that the " kill a watt "gadget?, Even if I knew the consumption it won't help me save especially when the kids are around, tomorrow there's no classes and their cousins might drop by to play
Best saving is to turn it off like our aircons

I just search online. I want to find out how much per hour I cost for using the computer. I can reach 600 pesos per month. But if I can earn 1000 here in mylot it's just okay to waste time on computer
