Came across this site today. Very easy to use. Not very accurate for my house, but probably OK for a better insulated home.

Looks pretty accurate. Based on another posting I did earlier today it matches my 52% energy savings burning wood vs electricity. 

Thanks for the find!!

The calculator is very helpful for a quick cost comparison of different fuels.  Like Marty, I found my actual monthly savings are, in reality, much more than calculated.
