If electricity cost $0.1/Whr, a cup of tea would cost ~$10 just to run the kettle. You've overestimated the cost of electricity by roughly a thousand-fold.

Residential electricity prices in California are more like 0.19 USD/kWh, which is 0.00019 USD/Wh.

I wonder what the cost is when taking second order effects into the equation. Leverage hides the true cost, burying the reality further and further from the obvious.
