Which costs more to operate?
This 75 watt bulb
Or this 26 cubic foot refrigerator?
The bulb...in fact replacing a 10 year old refrigerator will save you $110 per year.

Quick Question
As I am still in Miami and woefully unprepared for a post, the following is a quick question...

Steve,
ReplyDeleteI have a lot of low voltage track lighting, pendants, and fixtures throughout my condo. My electric bill last month was more than $200 for a two bedroom condo with one person living in it. Since the appliances and LCD tv are new I'm assuming the bill is due to the lighting or a 4 year old Neptune electric dryer.
Is there an energy efficient option for track lighting which wouldn't invoice taking down all the tracks? Also, what about energy efficient electric dryers - or is that an oxymoron?
Thanks,
John
Low voltage is simply whiter incandescent light.
ReplyDeleteMy suggestion to save money on the utilty bills without spending a ton:
A. Dimmers and switches, so you are not turning everything on at the highest level
B. A moisture sensing dryer savings money and protects clothing
Thats the easiest...LED bulbs would be the best, but thats not practical
So there's no equivalent of a CFL/energy efficient low voltage bulb that I can just pop in?
ReplyDeleteMaybe...depending on the socket
