Can someone help me work out the cost per hour?

I have a little oil-filled radiator that is 500W. If my standard unit cost of electricity is 35.4p, how much would it cost me to run per hour?

17.7p

Oh brilliant - thank you so much! Definitely worth me popping it on then.

No problem!

2 hours would equal 1Kw so ½ the price of 1kwh to get the 1 hour cost = ½ of 35.4p = 17.7p as pp said
