Our last bill was $302. Main AC set to 73 day, 71 night with 50% humidity setting. Garage minisplit set at 75, and two east facing lanai minisplits set at 73-75 depending on the weather. 2300 sq ft, 4 br, 3 bth, 8 month old home. We also run a pondless waterfall in our backyard with a remote control, so just a few hours daily. We think this is a bargain compared to our former SoCal summer time electric bill. We paid $300 in winter with no AC running, gas furnace, and backyard waterfall pumps running only 1 hr/day on a timer.
