Greg where can you get 2.6 Kwh in the US, im running an extension cord
there. I pay 12.5 Kwh


Cass County Electric, off peak rates, in the area of Fargo ND.

This is a "off peak" rate. For those that don't know what that is, you need
to sources of heat, for example, electric boiler with a oil or gas fired
boiler. Electric resistance heat, with oil or gas forced air backup. You
agree that you will let the utility shut off your electric heat when ever
they want to, hence the second source of heat required to take over when
that happens. The utility may shut your electric heat off for days! You can
hook up both water heaters and heat for your home. The rates for general use
electric for the home is at a much higher rate, but still much cheaper than
your 12.5! IIRC about 8 cents per KW.
