I plan to upgrade but it probably won't be until early next year. Broken appliances and vehicles in need of repair... Where I am power is 8.5c/kWh CAD, it's so cheap compared to other parts of the world... spending over a thousand dollars to save $20/year in power is not really worth it. If I was paying 30c/kWh I would've upgraded already. Dan
