Here in Tasmania, we done a real good fing, Its called "pay as you go" metres and you can chuck away your powerbill. As for the amount of your bill, Cripes! I go through a piddly $1500 for the whole year and thats a family of 4! I am now going to have to concratulate my snotty little teenage ranga about how conservative she is... thanks mate

Apparently I use an average of just under 3kWH per hour. Even averageing back over the previous quarter (assuming they took an estimate last time), it still comes to ~1.7kWH per hour.
Not quite sure how this is happening unless my tiny (150L) hot water system is attempting cold fusion. I also have 10 power points and an electric stove, but even at the lower estimate of hourly usage, it still seems high.
Any sparkies that may have an opinion on the normalcy or otherwise of this (apparent) level of electricity usage?
