How your savings are calculated

Step 1 determine the total power saved on hours used

5 watts * 8 hours = 40 Wh daily savings

40 Wh / 1000 watts per kW = 0.04 kWh daily savings

Step 2 determine energy savings

0.04 kWh daily savings x 365 days per year = 14.6 kWh yearly savings

14.6 kWh yearly savings x 10 year life span = 146 kWh lifetime savings

Step 3 determine money savings

0.04 kWh x $0.118 per kWh = $0.00 daily savings

14.6 kWh x $0.118 per kWh = $1.72 yearly savings

146 kWh x $0.118 per kWh = $17.23 lifetime savings
