Walking Pad to Electricity Cost Calculator
The energy consumption of a walking pad, also known as a treadmill desk or under-desk treadmill, typically varies depending on the model and usage intensity. However, on average, a walking pad usually consumes between 0.3 kWh to 0.75 kWh per hour. Here’s a breakdown:
- High-Intensity Use (e.g., faster walking or jogging): Around 0.65 to 0.75 kWh per hour.
- Low-Intensity Use (e.g., slow walking): Around 0.3 to 0.5 kWh per hour.
- Moderate-Intensity Use: Around 0.5 to 0.65 kWh per hour.
Depending on daily usage and local electricity prices the annual cost can be hundreds of dollars. Here’s a calculator so you can estimate the yearly costs for different scenarios.
A walking pad would cost you around €0 per year in electricity.
The Office Walker pays for itself in X months in this scenario
A manual walking pad like the Office Walker doesn't have a motor and doesn't use electricity. So over time it will save you money.
And we didn't even consider the other benefits like durability, maintenance, and replacement costs of failing electric walking pads.
