Ai Powered Calculator


Know The Cost Of The Home Theater/Stereo Electricity Bill Before Installing it.

How Does This Calculator work?

  1. The first field of the calculator is for the total cost of the electricity unit in your country. Check the bill there might be written as 26kWH. You will have to put $0.26 in the first field of the calculator but without the “$” sign.
  2. The next field is for the total rated power of the home theater equipment. The equipment is both for audio and video. How to find this? Prepare a checklist of the home theater equipment and write down each equipment rated power along with it. You can get this power rating from the product listings. Now add every equipment rated power and this total power should be entered into this second field.
  3. Enter the hours per day that you will watch your home theater or listen to your stereo and then click on the calculate button and the calculator will show you the total cost per month of your setup.

What Does This Calculator Do?

This calculator will help you to know the approximate home theater power consumption per month. This will make you prepare for the electricity cost that will be added to the utility bill per month by your home theater or home stereo setup.

Kindly note this point that the total cost per month is an approximate value for you. So, you arrange your equipment accordingly.

How much electricity does a home theater use?

A typical home theater has at least 1500 power watt consumption per month and this sum up to $35 per month in electricity cost.

This 1500 watts is the most commonly used home theater in the world. That’s why I gave this value for demonstration purposes. So, you get the idea about the total monthly cost of the home theater.

Can This Calculator Be Used For Home Stereo?

This can be used for a home stereo setup. You just have to add the total rated power of the stereo speakers along with the subwoofer. Next, you have to add the rated power of the stereo amplifier and stereo preamp.

Put the final rated power value into this calculator and it will give the total electricity cost per month for the home stereo.

How Accurate Is This Calculator?

This calculator provides you with an approximate cost because you may already know that the rated power of any home theater or stereo equipment doesn’t mean that it will drive out the same power throughout its running time.

There are peaks and drops during the running time. This is why the actual cost when you install the setup will be a few dollars more or less.

This is why this calculator’s final result is a few dollars less or more than the actual value.

I'm Ayaan khan, a freelancer and a Computer Science degree holder from P.E.S. College. After my degree, I started an internship with my father in his home theater showroom. After working for a month I realized that this is the best job in the world for me and it could be turned into a passion. Fast forward to when my internship ended, I joined my father as a full-time home theater equipment tester. I test new equipment and approve it before it can be installed in the customer's house. I love to test equipment and sometimes love to install it by myself in the customer's theater room. I have the right experience and knowledge to learn from my articles.
