a question worth asking a host before you compare anyone on kwh:

if my machine sits idle four hours a day, do i pay for those four hours?

four hours is about 17% of the month. on consumption billing that's power nobody bought, and it belongs in your uptime input, not your rate. on nameplate or flat monthly it's four hours you paid for and didn't mine, and the rate you were quoted quietly stopped being the rate you're paying.

same downtime. two completely different bills.
