not horrendous. If its kept inside under 30 its worth it. The more you can seal things up the better it'll be.
I turned it on when it peaked at 30.7, for about 5 hours it could only get it down to (and keep it at) about 28, then it very slowly brought it down to 23 which it hit at midnight when I turned it off
Taking my base load out of the equation, it cost me about 7 bucks
Make sure you isolate it to one room (we did bedroom) and shut the door to limit the work it does
Exactly what I did
