I posted this in another thread which I cannot find right now. I'm still trying to figure out whether or not we're getting raped on utilities and if there is some kind of electrical problem with our house.

2000 kWh/month with no HVAC unit running. Maybe 3000 sometimes during peak summer months.

My 1500+ sq. ft. house with a family of 4, 3 of which are home most of the day used 1340 kWh last month. Electric water heater and all appliances, but gas for heat.

4kWh

Do utility companies offer services to come out and see wtf is up? Maybe they're screwing us over for being college kids?

Yea I shipped it in and they gave me a brand new one. Switched over everything from the other, like TMNT and the other downloads, but otherwise its a brand new box. No dents or dings or anything!

My kids and I love the damn thing and play it all the time. Thanks a lot and sorry I didn't respond.

awesome, I never found the manuals, but my buddy said he'd ship his from boulder if needed.

anyway, back on topic....2000kWh is too much right?

^yeah man, I saw pretty much the exact thing in popular mechanics. I might have to invest in one.
