Hey!
You can get an exact calculation of how much it would cost you to run it 24 hours.
This is all you have to do.
1. Check the device wattage (watts), lets say its 100watts..
2. Multiply 100w x 24 (Hours Used Per Day) = 2.400 Watt-hours (Wh) Device usage per Day.
3. Devide Device Usage 2.400 (Wh) / 1000 (Wh/kWh) = 2.4 Device Usage in kWh.
4. Multiply Daily Usage 2.4 (kWh) x 30 (Days) = 72 (kWh/Month)Approximate Monthly Usage
5. Mutiply monthly usage 72 (kWh/month) x 0.15€ (cost of electricity) = 10,80€/month
You can check your electric bill to see how much they charge you.
I have a 300W dehumidifier 24 hours and I pay roughly 30€ just for that..

Hi!
You can count it easily!
Multiply the wattage the dehumidifier uses with hours it's used per day to know total Wh/day (divide by 1000 to get kWh/day) and multiply that with the price of your electricity per kW/h
So something like this. 100Wx24hx0.06$ (made up numbers) = 2.4kW/day and 0.144$ a day
Hope you get the idea from this

Cord for Vivosun Controller to automate an electric heaterI have a Vivosun CFM In-line duct with the Temp/Humidity controller. We’d like to connect an electric heater so that it can automatically come on when the temp is low inside the Tent. Any suggestions to what would be compatible to my Vivosun temp/Hum Controller?
