Someday soon, I'll be looking to replace electric baseboard with a heat pump, but I gotta be honest that I'd much rather not have air blowing, etc. as I'm sensitive to the variation and drafts.

No mini splits. No AC. All our lighting is LEDs. There's only the two of us. FWIW, our electric is NHEC. We do 3-6 loads of wash per week, and generally use the dishwasher once a week.
Past winters we heated primarily with wood. This year we are heading with oil. We keep the thermostat at 64, and have a Lasko electric tower heater in the LR. Room has a high ceiling and we keep the ceiling fan blowing up on low (as we did with w/stove).
Just got our electric bill for the past month, and it is only $85.
We are looking ahead with apprehension to see what Dec Jan Feb brings.
