Approximately GYD 14,000. per month for a modest home plus added bonus, blackout ! compared to USD51.00 which is my bill here per month.

How many pieces of electronic gadgets have you lost due to the erratic power supply? I lost 5 hard drives & 4 water pumps, just to name a FEW. All losses were within a two year time frame.
