Be Excellent To Each Other

How much does it cost in energy and to the environment though?

I want to know how many polar bears die each hour you turn it on.

I don't have the specs of mine to hand, but a similar model on Amazon uses a maximum of 800 W. Even if the compressor and heat pump was running flat-out all night [1] that's about 1.5 to 2 pence per day. Or it put it another way, it's only a little more than my desktop PC plus its monitors.

So "not much." Maybe even less than your VR racing rig.

[1] even on a hot night, its duty cycle is more like 50%, and the other half of the time it's just running the fan at a cost of a few watts.

So for the sake of the environment we should trash Myps VR Racing Rig?

Should probably start with his turbodiesel car and all the NOX it farts out, tbf.

I've got solar panels, so my hypothetical aircon will cost me nothing to run.

Fair enough. I stand corrected.

This is the Internet. You’re supposed to double down on your original position.

Too hot for that.

Aren't you cool enough already, snowflake?

He deffo is not MaliCool

It’s not quite zero environmental cost though, as if I wasn’t using the power it would go back into the grid (and probably run someone else’s air on).
