Does using Skype or Internet phone calls and gaming on a laptop take up massive amounts of energy?
Basically I have an electricity prepayment meter and previously I wasn't spending too much, but now that these things are being used in the house I seem to be spending an awful lot on Electric. Do these things take up massive amounts of extra electric?
Absolutely not. Any difference it makes to your computer's consumption might make the difference of about 3p per week.
When I used to have a pre-payment meter and my comp is on 24/7/365, no matter what I did made any difference to the amount I was using.
Hasn't it occured to you that you are using more electric because the time of the year and that the prices of electricity have gone through the roof?
Also with the modern meters, when you charge your key, any difference in prices, is programmed onto the key. So when you stick the key in the meter, the rates and settings for the meter are all updated.
It's done like that so they don't have to send blokes round anymore to keep resetting the meters every time there is a price change. Quick enough to put it up, but very slow to take it down!
