PowCost calculates how much electicity and how much that electricity costs
for various simple tasks like boiling water for coffee, or heating up a
meat pie in the microwave or conventional oven.  This information lets you
save money and put less stress on the environment.  It uses built in
tables of electricity cost in various regions in its calculations.  It
displays the results in your local currency.  The raw information comes
from many sources all over the Internet.  If you have better costs, please
send them to me, any currency is ok, cost per Kwh.  Please feel free costs
any locations I have not mentioned, or to make requests for still more
activities.
The exchange rate tables built in to the program are updated daily, so you
should download a fresh version of powcost from time to time to see
accurate prices for different regions of the world in your home currency.
The exch.ser file, embedded in the jar is generated by CurrConAux.  The
easiest way to get a more up to date version is just to download the
latest version of PowCost.  If you want to generate you own, download the
CurrCon program. I update it daily.
