An electric blanket is the solution for cold nights, especially if you choose an energy-efficient model such as the Comfeur electric blanket. But what does it actually cost to use such a blanket? And how advantageous is an electric blanket compared to other ways to stay warm? In this article we will explain to you what the electric blanket consumption is.
What is the consumption of a Comfeur electric blanket?
The Comfeur electric blanket has a power of only 65 watts , which means that the consumption is low, even if you use it all night. Thanks to the low power consumption, you can enjoy a warm night without worrying about high energy costs. Below you can see more about the consumption of an electric blanket.
Calculation example of power consumption of electric blanket
Suppose you use the electric blanket for 8 hours every night:
- 65 watts × 8 hours ÷ 1000 = 0.52 kWh per night .
- With an average electricity price of €0.40 per kWh , that only costs €0.21 per night .
For a month:
- 30 nights × €0.21 = €6.30 per month .
Enjoy optimal comfort every night for less than a cup of coffee a day!
An electric blanket versus other heating options
An electric heating blanket is a much more cost-effective option than traditional heating methods such as an electric heater or central heating. Below you can see the comparison:
| Option | Power consumption per night | Cost per night | Cost per month |
|---|---|---|---|
| Comfeur Electric Blanket | 0.52 kWh | €0.21 | €6.30 |
| Electric heater (1500W) | 12 kWh | €4.80 | €144.00 |
| Central heating | ~10 kWh | €4.00 | €120.00 |
As you can see, using an electric blanket is not only more economical, but also more environmentally friendly. You only heat your bed, instead of an entire room, which is a smart and efficient choice.
Why is a Comfeur electric blanket more economical?
In addition to its low power consumption, the Comfeur electric blanket offers unique advantages over competitors:
1. Energy-efficient power
With a power of 65 watts, the Comfeur electric blanket uses considerably less power than many other models, which often have a power of 100 to 150 watts. This saves you a lot of money every month.
2. Extra long dimensions
At 190 x 80 cm, the Comfeur blanket is longer than most standard electric blankets, without using any extra power. Ideal for taller people or those looking for that little bit of extra comfort.
3. Useful features
The blanket is equipped with a timer function, which allows you to easily set how long it stays on. This prevents unnecessary energy consumption and provides extra safety. With the 6 heat settings, you can choose the ideal temperature without using unnecessary energy. In the calculation example above, we assumed that the blanket would be used throughout the night. However, you often set the timer to a few hours, so that the blanket switches off while you are sleeping. So it will be even more cost-effective than described above.
Tips to minimize the power consumption of an electric blanket
Although the Comfeur electric blanket is already energy efficient, you can save even more with these tips:
- Use the timer function : Let the blanket switch itself off after a few hours to save energy.
- Choose a lower heat setting : Only use the highest setting to warm your bed and then switch to a lower setting.
- Use the blanket purposefully : Only turn it on when you are in bed, rather than well in advance.
With these tips you can make the most of the benefits of an electric blanket.
Conclusion: Save smartly with a Comfeur electric blanket
With a power consumption of only 65 watts and a cost of only €0.21 per night , the Comfeur electric blanket is one of the most energy-efficient options for staying warm. Compared to alternatives such as an electric heater or central heating, you will save a lot on your energy costs, while enjoying ultimate comfort.
