Due to tiered pricing (god I hate Edison) April was twice as much as March. About $400 USD versus $200. Sad

I barely broke even mining. This month is turning out much better! Wink

40-50kWH per month is a lot before mining. But it looks like you are in a very cold climate and have electric heating.

I think you meant 40-50 kWh per day is a "lot".  40-50 per month is NOTHING.

Oops. Yes, that is what I meant......  Undecided

Yeah, we are in a cool climate but at least we have inexpensive hydro-electric rates ($.0855/KWH) so the mining only added about $100 to my electric bill, more than offset by the run-up in BTC value over the past month.

I've been building up the mining cluster over time so expect it to go up next month.

I was just amused by the distinct spike on the usage graph Smiley

Can't wait to see my May electric bill.  Should be over 3,000 kWh and it isn't even 100F outside (yet).

Edit: Fixed timeframe.
