About 7 cents an hour.
If the pilot light is on, the heater should come on by itself. If the pilot light is off then it has to be lit. If it will not stay on, the thermocouple is bad.
ahm...depends on the cost per watt charged by your local provider... how much is it?
yes
The cost to run a 400 watt HPS light will depend on your electricity rate. On average, running a 400 watt HPS light for 1 hour will cost around $0.06 to $0.12. To calculate the monthly cost, multiply the hourly cost by the number of hours the light is on each day, then multiply by 30 days.
The detailed directions are printed on front of EVERY gas regulator. - However, in general terms, turn regulator switch to OFF for 2 minutes, then to PILOT and depress for one minute, then light pilot or press clicker till it lights. Keep PILOT pressed for 2 more minutes then slowly release it. If it stays on then turn main switch to RUN or ON. -If you have to light the pilot manually, use a barbecue match (12 inches long)
it cost 50$
In 100 hours it will use 6 kilowatt-hours (units) of electrical energywhich would cost around £1 or $1.

To calculate the cost of running a 400-watt halogen light, first convert watts to kilowatts: 400 watts is 0.4 kW. If the cost is 14 pence per kWh, the cost to run the light for one hour would be 0.4 kW × 14 pence = 5.6 pence. Therefore, it costs approximately 5.6 pence for each hour of operation.
