250w (e ballasts run at about 250, mags 300) @ 8 hours = 2000whrs
3 mj1200@20w=60w@24h=1440whrs
rio 1700? not sure what wattage draw is
so 3440whrs per day, or 3.44 kwh@$.15/kwh, you're looking about $0.50 a day to run this thing in power, so yeah, $20 a month is totally reasonable.
Get mj900s instead if you havent already bought them.
