    Here is a photo of an actual calculation of how much power a 10 watt UTH will use in a month and year. It also shows that the average cost of a kWh is 12 cents



    This calculation is the worst case. It was calculated with the UTH running at full blast 24/7

    This is a picture of my Thermostat. the Percentage shows how much power is being sent to the UTH to achieve the desired temperature
