Caveys right.. box clever. I myself got a $1400 credit on my shops electricity bill due to outrageous estimations. The architect next door today received a $2500 credit... mind you the bastards stung him $8 to come and read the meter.

My shop is lit up like a beacon.. i have neon everywhere as well as high light output LED displays etc. I have 2 blowers that run constantly when im working... i have power factor capacitors across the 240V supply to reduce consumption.
My main piece of equipment is the neon bombarder... produces 20,000V @ 1A.. it requires a single phase 40A supply.
My lighting is on 24hrs 7 days a week  all year. My shop looks like one big fat power sucker.

My bills are $200 a quarter
