Some Mathing
For $0.07020/kwh (my local power rate):
7W LED bulb$0.35/mo
14W CFL bulb$0.70/mo
70W server$3.54/mo
1500W heater$75.816/mo
I think I'm going to try and figure out how to build banks of LED lights instead of having light fixtures.
My 7W LEDs provide about 80% of the light a 14W CFL does (which itself is equivalent to a 60W incandescent), so you really need about 50% more to feel like the same brightness.
Things to think about.
