The marginal cost for the 1 unit above the first 200 is usurious coz of VAT

I suggest we go the solar way. We use kplc power only as a back-up and save for an invertor to use all other 240v gadgets.We shall end up using less in overall cost. Mwaona je?

.. i think if your consumption per month is more than 200 units, just get another meter and subdivide you consumption between the two, you will reduce the cost by a bigger margin..,

If u consume a given shillings worth of electricity in a month.It makes little difference if ur breakdown the purchases in whatever smaller amounts....
The total no of units u get is more all less the same..

The thing in single purchases is not to over estimate ur consumption in a month...It becomes disadvantageous in the more u consume in a month the more u pay..ie rate per kwh increases

however I wonder if one cant buy a little more in a month to hedge against the rising fuel cost at the beginnin of every month...

It is a fact the lower the denomination the higher you gain!!!!
SAMPLE THIS:
When you load 5sok you get 43 units
and for 1k you get 73units on your metre!!!
.....there is no rocket science here eti sijui cummulative, the lower the better!!!!
