    Offer to put them inside a nice fire proof asbestos box then :)

    For folders go with edf's 5 year fixed plan as energy prices are due to rise(even though it works out slighty more exspensive)
    Also they offer Eco 20:20 which is a he'll of a cheaper in the evening/ night and leave it folding then at 1/3 te price!

    Electric prices are a joke and are getting funnier by the month!!
    I go through about £120~ish a month in Electric running my 24-thread SR2 and 12-thread i7 rig which between them pulls about 850w from the wall (both watercooled)

    I don't fold on any GPU's anymore just the 3 hex core CPU's and its still expensive every month, when solar power has matured a little bit more and the costs of it settles I will seriously be looking into it!! (Or I'll shove a windmill up in the garden hahaha joking btw :p)
