What is the monthly electric cost for:
Refrig
TV
Interior lights
Exterior lights
Garage door openers
Wine cooler refrig
WiFi
Ceiling fans
Microwave

Yes, usage determines cost. Yes, specific models determine cost..............but just wondering if someone has gone thru and looked at EnergyGuide labels or other sources.

Not all devices use the same amount of electrical power. I would suggest as a start that you google the specification of each of your devices to see what the power requirements are. Once you know how many "watts per hour" each device uses you can then answer your own question by estimating the time that you use each device per month. Example in general a led light uses less power than a traditional light bulb and a flat screen TV uses less power than a TV that uses Tubes. To answer your specific question one would need to know the exact model of each of your appliances and the amont of time you use it.
