Power Cost of a Laptop


Question Posted Thursday January 12 2006, 9:12 pm

I have an HP z5330. I was wondering, if i kept my laptop on 8 hours a day, everyday, how much power that would use (like how many watts)

Also, to go one step further, how much would that cost in the state of California?

I know this is somewhat odd, but my parents and I are having an argument over it. I'll rate 5s for an answer

I dont know about those things but that would ruin your laptop to have it on for 8 hours, they can't handle things as well as normal computers can, they get over heated easier jsut so you know, maybe you can call a bestbuy for the information you're looking for though

Well that's a honeydew of a melon scratcher.
I looked for wattage crap but I couldn't find anything on it. BUT to save power, you could simply close the laptop, putting it on standby mode, thus saving energy. That also charges the battery so you could have it unplugged for 3 hours or so. It shouldn't cost more than $5.00 a month. CAUSE IF IT DOES *shake fist violently*
