This is the 3rd time and there were times when it was at $60 and my power usage was pretty much the same. Hell I even don't bother turning on my lights, relying only lighting from the monitor well into the evening.

I think I have to invest in a Kill a Watt meter. What do you guys think?
try to find yer meter and read it. then call them and tell them what your meter reads. if it dont match your bill start bitching.

well They dropped my bike off while I was sleeping. From the sounds of it it wont start. Will try here shortly but my guess is the battery is dead.

Ofblong I still say drive down there, beat em with the tire irons they have laying around, and make em fix it right!
If they delivered it with a dead battery chances are that they didn't try to start it to make sure it ran right...

How's the bike look? Did they at least do a decent job with it?

2 (3 now?) months to fix your bike, and they deliver it to you not running? Have they never heard of a trickle charger?
