That was my bigger problem.... Another air-conditioner and duct work later,
my basement is cool!!! ;)

Nobody ever said this was an inexpensive industry to be, right?

Thanks for the calculations Jason... I like your ROI model.. presents a
compelling reason not to buy an APC like switch...

I guess my concern now is not the electric bill but rather to provide proper
ventilations as my Routers and switches exudes alot of heat..

Regards to all,

Jon

One more interesting tid-bit:

Since a router (and most electronic equipment) does no "work", it gives off
most of its' power in heat, a Kw/hr is roughly 3.5 BTUs, so if you have air
conditioning, it will run more.

Hello to the good people on this list...

Does anyone know of a product that can be obtained at a reasonably good
price (reasonable is defined as being $500.00 and under) that will remotely
power on equipment such as routers and switches.

I have a lab at home which I can telnet to from work from time to time but
I
have leaving them on for extended periods of time.

Does anyone know what the effect of 8 2500 series routers on a home
electiricity bill?? =)

Thanks in advance!

Jon
