yup. it probably has an amp rating on it somewhere. mine'll pop the circuit if i plug it in in the living room, but the entertainment center AND computer share the circuit as well.

Normal vacuum current draw is about 10 amps. This is the equivalent of about 11 100 watt bulbs or turning a toaster on!

Check your amp rating on the unit. multiply by 110 = watts. check your electrical bill to see what you are charged for a kilowatt hour (1000 watts)
ex. 10 amps x 110 = 1100 watts, bill says $0.24 kilowatt/hours
vacuum costs about $0.27 to operate one hour.
your computer 300 watt power supply... cost 3x more to operate 1 hour.
tv (tube type) 600 watts...6x more to operate 1 hr.
good luck....

You'll never notice a difference on your bill -- anywhere from 15 cents to 20 cents an hour. Best buy in electricity. to get all those nasty germs out of your house.

so as of potential use - Ceiling fan lights Alarm Clock radio pc charger cellular telephone charger Chargers use a tiny little bit of electrical energy while no longer in use, in all probability some cents a 365 days.

it depends how much power it takes (how many watt) but I don't imagine that it take more power then a hair dryer and an iron, heating appliance consume more
