Had not thought of that. My home office is warm unless it is cold
outside.

don't forget to factor in that a computer is a pretty efficient space
heater. cost isn't all in power. a datacenter averages 40% of its
costs (total costs) in cooling. I'm sure that doesn't translate well
for homes, but something to keep in mind if you're trying to get
numbers at this level.

I am curious... what could you be doing at home that might
require a

On 24/7, obviously.
I barely notice the extra power on my monthly bill.
Thanks,

Hi,
I just read this quote about the electrical costs to run a web
server
from home:
Cost: While it may sound cheaper to use that computer lying
around
doing
nothing when creating your web server, when you factor in the
cost
of
powering an old computer 24 hours a day, it can get very
expensive.
A
250W desktop computer running 24 hours per day at 12 cents per
KW/h
is a
whopping $262.00 per year!

I think their math is wrong.
The average residential electricity rate in Chandler is
10.85ยข/kWh.
I'm thinking a low traffic PHP web server running on an old
Dell
with a
400 watt power supply is not using but maybe 100 watts on
average.
I've
read that the computer should use no more than half the power
supply
capacity. Is this correct?
If my home web server is using 100 watts an hour that mean 100
watts
*
30 days * 24 hours or 72K watts.
I'm thinking 72 * .1085 = $7.81 a month.
Any thoughts are much appreciated.
