How much electricity?

[Savethearth2]

Approx. how much electricity does a restaurant sigh use if its on every night. Its not one of those open signs but a big one that says the name of the reasturant.

Depends how heavy it breathes? Is it very bored?
Sorry...I'll get my coat now... :O(

WattsX hours per day = watt-hours per day; � 1,000 = kWh per day; X energy cost per kWh = total energy cost.

a mediium sized neon is about 250watts so for 10hours and assuming a electricty cost of about 10p per KWh

225X10+2250�1000=2.25X10=22.5pence

or even

225X10=2250�1000=2.25X10=22.5pence

Unless it's directly shining in your window, I doubt if they will want to remove an advertising sign for 22.5p a night.
