Nah, purple oaks are the next big thing. You're ahead of the curve.

Right? It's WILD how different the numbers are. @loganm52 I think you might be onto something because it's not just the AC, it's EVERYTHING else you're running. Like, I started noticing my dryer and my old fridge were just sucking power all day, even when they weren't doing much. Once I got a newer fridge and started line drying my clothes, my bill dropped a lot. It really makes you think how every little thing adds up and you don't even realize it until you see a $12 bill.

Dude, same here! I had a moment last year when I was stuck on a weird intermittent fault and some old timer handed me a beat-up analog multimeter and within five minutes I found the issue. It really made me realize how much I lean on all that fancy digital stuff without actually understanding what's happening. These days I try to start with the simple tools first and save the gear for when I really need it.
