I’ve been running HID lights, but my electric bill jumped way higher than I expected. I thought the cost would be manageable, but now I’m rethinking. Do LEDs really save that much on power?
 
I switched from a 400W HID to a 240W LED last year, and my bill dropped noticeably. The heat reduction alone made it worth it! no more running extra fans. LEDs really do stretch watts further.
