Cause I'm looking at my electric bill right now and seeing the following

Customer Charge 39.16
Energy Charge 1,000 KWH @ 0.04989 49.89
Energy Charge 4,490 KWH @ 0.05214 234.11
Fuel Adjustment 5,490 KWH @ 0.04000 219.60
FL Gross Receipts Tax 13.91
Total Current Charges 563.76
Total Due Please Pay 556.67

And I'm saying to myself, self, by golly that fuel charge itemization looks awfully close to the actual energy charge which kinda suggests they are burning an amount of fuel almost equal to in kilowatt in terms of price.

So where's the real fucking savings in any sense by going in this direction for my car?

I've already ditched Solar as infeasible due to the fact that it is useless to me during a power outage and paying a loan with interest is nearly dollar for dollar the same as just paying the electric company


Nah, i'm sticking with the portable solar generator route and hooking things like my Well, Pool, Hottub and water heater up to those

that's where my real savings will be

Jesus!  Your electric bill is through the roof!  Mine is $52.21, but it will be higher this month because I've been running the AC.

Of course, I'm alone and live like a hermit and turn the lights off when I'm not in a room, but your bill is off the fucking hook.

Yes it is

But I have an olympic size pool which I have to run the pump on for at least 5 hours a day. A hottub which is 60 amps and my girl needs to literally be boiled to death like a fucking chicken before she'll get in. I need to have the house at 68 degrees at all times (4500 sq ft) or I feel like I'm dying.

Then when you factor in all the water used (I pump my own), septic pumps and my pretty extensive computer lab it all really starts to add up.

Plus the washer and dryers ain't cheap and all my appliances are electric

Did you ever witness how crazy I drove AIDSmin with details about my house, car and lavish lifestyle?

I'd need only mention my swimming pool in passing and he'd shit his pants while coughing up a vital organ

that shit was always funny

It's still funny.  Keep you eye on the SB.  Gremlin will be asking about your swimming pool soon.

I thought your power bill would be more than that.
