600W do you mean 60W?

No 600w

That is around 10KwH so £1.00 to £1.20 depending on your tarrif
Ok if it really is 600w multiply by 10.

lol Eddie. That's the first thought that crossed my mind!
Your 60w (hope it’s 60w !!) bulb will consume a fraction over 10 Kilowatt hours of juice during the week. Too work this out multiply 168 (hours in a week) times 60 (the number of watts) divided by 1,000 (to get to Kilowatt hours). It’s actually 10.08 Kwh.

British Gas’s standard rate for pre-pay electricity is currently 13.32p per Kwh. At that rate the cost of running your 60w light would be £1.34. Ten times that, of course, if it really is a 600w bulb!
