how much electricty does it use a year on average?

I am sorry to say I have no idea. This item is connected into the wall, and just like all of my electric lights, television, etc it does not come with a separate bill. Quite frankly, however, I cannot see it using very much since you cannot leave it on for an extended period of time.

This is an impossible questions to answer as it depends entirely on how many hours a day you have it on. If it is on continuously it uses 150 Watts per hour or 1,314 kWhrs (or units) of electricity per year. I have mine connected by a switch timer for about 3 hours a day from 6:30 am until 9:30 am. This reduce the units used to about 164 units per year. It takes about 20 to 30 minutes to warm up the towels to a nice temperature and then one of us generally gets up about 7 am and the other 7:30. It could go off earlier if we were consistent when we get up but some days it is an hour later but as we are both retired it is somewhat random. If your use a timer which also has days of the week programmed you may only need to keep it on for 2 hours day timed for hone you get up. On weekends you could set it for a later start. Please remember that this towel warmer does NOT have a thermostat. It is not needed. I left on deliberately for 6 oto 8 hours to see how hot it would get with and without the towels on it. It does get hot but not in my humble opinion hot enough to burn you if you touched itbut you will know about about it. I was wanted to know what happened to the towels it did not get any where close to stroking them. Sorry for the long answer but your question needed a broader answer than you were probably expecting.

It also depends on the EV. It can consume up to 6.6kW, but some EVs (2011-2012 LEAFs, Volts) will only take 3.3kW.

I think ours must run about $30 a month and we live in a high electricity cost area. Friction heating ts a lot cheaper than using a heating element.

I have no clue. My electric bill from last summer was unchanged from the previous year, so I'm guessing not much (I live in a very small condo with pretty low electrical use, so I should notice any significant changes). I used the fan on it's lowest setting mostly all last summer, have not used it more than a day so far this year.

If you used this heater 12 hours per day on the high setting (1500W), this is approximately what you'd have: 1500Wx12Hx30D=540,000W per month or 540Kw. For average utility electricity averaging about 10 cents per Kw that would give you monthly usage amount of around 54 dollars. We use this heater in conjunction with central heating and not as an addition. We are actually seeing our normal monthly bill drop.

I don't know specifically, but I do know it's got to be minimal. If it consumed a dollar a day I would have certainly noticed the difference in my electric bill. I would guess as much as any other electronic item, such as your dvd player, wireless phone, clock radio, microwave, anything that's plugged in continuously. Whatever it is, it doesn't bother me because it's worth it to me to have clean carpet and floor without my effort. It's an amazing gadget that works well.

High! All electric heaters on 220 are not efficient. Just depending on how much you run it. I have a 22x22 garage that I heat just when I'm working in there, works great! But if you leave it on for a long period of time it can get expensive.

The Energy Guide estimates $26 cost per year at 240 kWh yearly electricity use. Typically, in the summer months, my electric bill runs $20-$30 per month. It is staying under $30. I really have no complaint of any kind ref. our freezer. It's small and convenient, yet holds those great bargains I hate to pass up.

From a $$$ perspective, we run ours about 12 hours a day. Impact on electric bill is about $1 per day. Hope this helps.

Not sure how one could find out power use with everthing elese running in house.

I have not noticed any increase in my electric bill. The fan is used primarily in a bedroom on the medium setting. It works great!

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.

Not sure of electricity consumption; however, the appliance is "Energy Star" rated.

Is that 50mw per year? If so how much would that be in dollars? thxRe: USB Charger/Tamper Resistant Outlet cat. no T5630 idle current draw?It is below 50mw as compared to Cooper who was twice ours and Pass & Seymour which was over 4 times ours.

electric, I've had it almost a year and use it every night with no problems at all.

No, regular American/United States household current. I think - but I'm no electrician - that's just 110.

I estimate about $0.20/hour at my current electric cost of 0.13472634 kWt. That would be at the full 1500 kWt setting but I usually use the Low setting, which still kicks out a lot of heat.
