Did you notice a spike on your electricity when using this devise regularly? Thanks

No, I didn't get a chance to use it because it started giving out a burnt smell and stopped working

Not really, but we only use it at most one-third of the month and only at night and only in the winter.

No....I have not had any problems of that nature with mine. But at the end of the day you should be extremely careful when mixing electricity and water anyways. After each and every use of mine, I follow the directions and make sure that it has drained completely and is pretty dry before repacking it into the box for my next use. If you do that, I think you'll be safe with any particular one that you choose to use. Good luck!

I do not know the answers to your first two questions but I can say we have not seen a noticeable increase in our electricity bill since we installed the ionizer.

Upon turn on, there is a brief spike of current draw at 2.1Amps. Idle is about 0.3A. And most of my listening experience stays under 0.6A at moderate levels. However, I am sure that if you push this thing to its limits, it will exponentially increase. The highest draw I have pulled was 2.5amps, but this is due to apartment living and I am very limited to what levels I can achieve. It was very loud though!

We are actually using two of the AC12000 units - one purchased last year, one this year - in two different parts of the house. The second unit went into operation during the recent heat wave so, yes, our electric bills did go up. Both units were running full time. I have found them to be very useful, since their output may be directed more freely than that of window mounted units. It helps to "back up" the window panel of the unit with insulation and, of course, to close off the inter-pane space to prevent outside air intrusion.

No. Please make sure you have appropriate power pluged in. Heat is usually a sign of over amped supply

I have had mine for roughly a year and I've never experienced that. I would also suggest checking out the wiring.

Over the years I have had a few that got hot when they were plugged in constantly. I started unplugging them when not in use.I don't know what caused it, but they did better when plugged in by themselves on a separate plug.

Yes I have. I use mines everyday it has happened to me before but only twice and of that happens you just unplug the whole thing and turn off the tv as well for 10 mins. It could be that you don't have good wifi service.

Yes, I've seen this. I had mine for 14 years, and I noticed this as well, but it didn't seem to interfere with the usage (or, more importantly, electrocute me)

I have had mine plugged in 24 /7 and have not noticed a difference in my electric bill. With normal monthly fluctuations in usage it goes on working unnoticed.....

I haven't had a problem, although you might get a little electricity feedback if your power outlet is a little off on voltage

You can use it continuously as long as you are not overloading it. Remember, you have leave a margin for the power surge.

I leave mine on all the time for several months during the winter - and I have not noticed any increase in the electric bill. Just to be sure, I just checked past bills, and they have pretty much stayed around the same and very little increase from last year.

Mine doing that too. I think it's got bad wire. Sometimes goes to 9k. Then 13k

I have had mine for over a year and never noticed a thing. Honestly no difference in my electric bill if it runs or not and I have it running a lot. I highly recommend it!

We run ours 24/7 and I have never noticed any increase in electric usage. Remember its basically just a fan.
