Wow! I thought CA was supposed to be expensive, but I'm paying a lot less
than that, at least on average. Don't think even the marginal rate is that
high.

You're assuming that the charger is 100% efficient. But those things get
hot even with no load, so I'd guess it's wasting at least a watt. Which
would bring the cost up to a whopping 38 cents <G>
