For comparison, my US bill is currently 9.5c/kWh, which is 7p/kWh. Your UK price is 4x that of mine! The SpaceX office where the dish was designed is just down the road from here, so I can totally see the engineers thinking "What's the big deal, it's only 100W? That's a few dollars a month."

And just to drive the point home: this is not the last price increase we will see. It will rise another 50% in October and probably won't fall much until 2024.

In California we pay an average of 25-35c/kwh.
