I was able to shave off $7 a month on energy useage to $83.42 per month by adjusting some timers. I was suprised to see that the T5s are not really any more energy efficient than the halides when comparing output - heat generation is totally different though.

My husband went to the Home Depot to pick up some new fuses. Wondering if the big storm we had the other day caused all these problems. Our satellite dish is out as well. DirecTV will not be out until Wednesday.
