Your 2 Cents: More Valuable Than You May Think

When it comes to opinions, a person’s 2 cents may not always be highly valued. But in the world of electricity, 2 pennies hold surprising power. Here’s a glimpse of what 2 cents can do:

• Enjoy 90 minutes of TV on a 50-inch LED
• Stay online with 16 hours of Wi-Fi
• Fully charge an iPhone 13 Pro 11 times
• Play 90 minutes on a video game console
• Warm two leftover meals in a microwave
• Work on a laptop for five hours
• Run a ceiling fan for more than two hours
• Light up your porch for 16 hours with an LED bulb
• Brew 5 pots of coffee

All this, powered by just 2 cents!
