I'm not the only cause of the rolling blackouts!
The DWP guy came out today to investigate the meters. I'm averaging about $50
for every two months now according to him. We tried a test where I turned on
the heater and he calculated the approximate wattage from how fast the meter
turned over. 4000W. So most likely the heater is to blame. Still, he's going
to charge me at my current rate of consumption and talk to the managers of the
building about what they can do to make the building more efficient.
Here's the kicker. With a $650 bill, I wasn't even Top Ten. The DWP
guy had a pile of meter reading requests from everyone in the building. Some
people had $900 bills!
