PHILIPS 27B2N35
The PHILIPS 27B2N35's certified consumption is 56 kWh per year, which prices out to about $10 at the national average rate — your hours of use scale that directly.

The same unit costs $6.89 a year in North Dakota but $26 in Hawaii — electricity rates, not the appliance, make the difference.
