Given the electricity rates he mentioned, what would you estimate the monthly running cost to be?

Depends on load. Somewhere around $20-40? Assuming idle around 80-120w, and another 100w for the e-waste drives in their pictured listing.

His numbers are probably 8x higher than actual. So maybe $8-15/mo for electricity for one of the old servers, not $100.
