Privacy, for me, is a necessary feature for something like this.
And I think your math is off, $0.20 per kWh at 1 kW is is $145 a month. I pay $0.06 per kWh. I've got what, 7 or 8 computers running right now and my electric bill for that and everything else is around $100 a month, at least until I start using AC. I don't think the power usage of something like this would be significant enough for me to even shut it off when I wasn't using it.
Anyway, we'll find out, just ordered the motherboard.

- michpoch 2y ago> I pay $0.06 per kWh That is like, insanely cheap. In Europe I'd expect prices between $0.15 - 0.25 per kWh. $0.06 sounds like you live next to some solar farm or large hydro installation? Is that a total price, with transfer?
- rufus_foreman 2y agoSo one thing, it's the winter rate, summer rate is higher when people run their AC and the energy company has to use higher cost sources. Second, it's a tiered rate, first x amount of kWh is a higher rate, then once you reach that amount it's a lower rate. But I'm already above the tier cutoff every month no matter what, so marginal winter rate is around $0.06.
