It is pretty easy to spend 200/month in August.
Little over a thousand a year has been pretty consistent for us year round since 2014 in our current home. Not a energy geek or have special monitoring system. We have a humidistat. We have never had a summer bill at $200. In any of our three homes. Just stating a fact of the exact amount we pay for a year of electricity. I use quick books so it's very easy to look at any bill since we bought in 2010
