power bills going up by est 20%. looks like we got to cut consumption more!
My electricity bill will affect me but likely minimum cos my 5 room flat usage is < $40 with gas, water and electricity.
Monthly about 60kW now. 2 person mainly watching TV on 29" CRT, DVD HDD recorder, 1 ceiling fan, 1 energy saving light bulb (25W to 100W) type almost 5 yrs now and still going, 1 tower fan on timer for sleeping, fridge from F&P with 2-3 ticks, uses PC on weekends, charge my iRobot daily, cook only on weekends. Leverage off in-laws one street away on weekdays' dinner.

Off the aircon main switch outside the ledge, save almost 25kW. till today makes no sense to me.
Got a free LCD monitor, change my PC CRT to LCD, save 10kW.
Making sure all electrical points is off, save 5kW.
Recently got 3 Philips motion sensor white LED light (need 3 AAA battery), placed at strategic area in the house, so that when one walk pass, it will light up the area for 15secs (no need to switch on and off ceiling lights).
