Was that a typo? It's not 200 pesos/KWH, the basic rate (up to 150KWH in the 2 month billing period) in my area is 1.02 pesos/KWH, and 1.247 for
intermediate rate. I usually go a bit into the intermediate rate.

Very correct, thanks, the decimal point was missing, should have been 2.00 per kwh which is what converts to our present rates up here. I always
wondered how Mexico managed to sell power so cheaply, even when you hit higher tiers. Makes electric vehicles even more attractive in Mexico as the
gasoline costs are pretty much the same

We’re looking at converting our RH drive mini truck to electric with 2 X 5hp electric motors and 16 100A Li Ion batteries 48V 20KW the batteries are
about $3500 The system will tie in with our house to give us 40KW combined with no special boxes except a 48V AC APU plug and socket plus a 400A 2
pole circuit breaker. The project would cost about $12-$15K US with an EV range about 120KM

mine were also very, very, low. one refrigerator, a water pressure pump, a small tv, and many fans used one or two at a time. the americans with 3
refers, a big screen tv, ac in one or 2 rooms, and a water purifier pulling water out of the air, paid huge bills untill they added solar, and wind
generators.
