April 7, 2013



My electricity consumption went up nearly 30% in the last 24 hours, and I cannot figure out why.

It may have had something to do with the fact that this is a weekend, and I have been at home. I've also been having sinus congestion issues, which have prevented me from sleeping more than about four hours each night. It has become routine recently for me to get up around 4 a.m. and be unable to go back to sleep. That, of course, leads to me getting out of bed, switching on the lights in my apartment, switching on my computer, switching on my TV, and all that consumes electricity.

Not much because my consumption rate remained below double digits — but just barely.

This morning's meter reading is 8607. Yesterday's reading was 8598 so my consumption was 9 kWh. The meter reading on Friday morning was 8591 so consumption in the previous 24–hour period was 7 kWh.
