The lights are highly efficient LED grow lights and do not use much power at all. There is hardly any impact on the bill. We switched all of the house lights from incandescent to LEDs in the last year, and the bill has been reduced dramatically from year to date. I opened the bill today and we used a third less electric than this time last year. I am not sure it was the light switch or other changes we made. My feeling is that we are getting quality fresh greens at a fraction of supermarket pricing, and, it is a rewarding passtime. Busy hands are happy hands.just wondering jack with growing things under lights during the winter whats your power bill like?

Don't feel bad, Mary. I grow lettuce outside in the winter too! Last year it even got snowed on! But the sun came out, the snow melted and we had a salad!Well I feel left out in this thread. I grow lettuce outside in the winter.
