    Because I live in a ridiculously cold state, they typically double as a heat source in my basement.

    Quoted from MustangPaul:

    I enjoy the look of the room when all my pins and extra atmosphere things are on but I only do that every once in a while when I'm by myself because with 14 pins and LOTS of extra stuff turned on the wheel in my meter only takes 3 seconds to go around once. With my gr turned off the wheel takes 22 seconds to revolve once.

    Paul, you make an interesting point on electrical use.

    Does anyone know what an idling pin costs per hour in energy? Let's say a new in box pin with LEDs for example.
