Do you notice a decrease in your indoor AC usage and drop in monthly electric bill?

Yes, I have a wired indoor/outdoor thermometer, and that is what I see the 20 plus degree drop when the fan kicks on.

The fan will typically start in later morning/early afternoon depending on sunlight, and will run 1-2 hours after sunset.

I have not tracked the AC use, sorry, but I think it is less.
