My sunbeam electric mattress pad (Queen size bed) pulls 350 watts max. I keep it at 2 or 3. Has one controller per side. Ranges from low-8.
I haven't got a kill o watt (ordered one last week), but I do know that the wattage rating on items is max rating. So in my case I don't think that I'm pulling that much. But now you have given me something to think about.
I keep heat at 62 at night and 68 durring the days that the family is here. If its just me I drop down to 65.
