Bikes: too many bikes from 1967 10s (5x2)Frejus to a Sumitomo Ti/Chorus aluminum 10s (10x2), plus one non-susp mtn bike I use as my commuter

Keep in mind that batteries tend to be in the range of a few hundred watt hours. Residential electricity is billed in kilowatt hours, at a range straddling 10 cents per kwh, so a full charge might cost about a nickle where electricity is fairly pricey.

I suspect that wear and tear on the battery, and ultimate replacement will be a bigger expense than the juice consumed.
