His bill for July was $22.25, and was as low as $14 in summer. He installed eight PV panels on the roof, double-glazing, upgraded the log fire which has a wetback, and only uses LED energy efficient bulbs. He even bounces the light from a stand of small five watt lamps off the white ceiling instead of using ceiling lights.
What tips and tricks do you use to keep your power bill at a minimum?

The new design will give traffic travelling on Kiddle Drive and Arrowsmith Avenue the right of way, with vehicles on Napier Road required to stop. There will also be cycle lanes, new road signage, new turning lanes and other safety improvements added.
Head of operations Kevin Strongman said the council had heard residents concerns about the high crash rate at the intersection and had worked with traffic specialists to design a solution that made safety the number one priority.
The existing layout of the intersection had caused traffic problems over the past two decades. It was named one of New Zealand Transport Agency’s top 10 crash sites in 2009, before it was handed over to the council as part of the East Taupō Arterial rearrangement. The $120,000 cost of the redesign will be fully funded by the New Zealand Transport Agency.
