I'll just come out and say it: 50W. I know, I know an order of magnitude above what's actually needed to host websites, media center and image gallery.

But it is a computer I had on-hand and which would be turned on a quarter of the day anyway. And these 50W also warm my home, although this is less efficient than the heat pump, of course.

What's your usage? What do you host?

I currently have probably 10% of your performance at 2x the power draw. 😭

Get new hardware or you will pay it with your energy bill

Lol, I've been paying for years! (It's been about $1/day).

I'm working on it. Have a new NAS box I'm currently setting up - it's max output power is 180w, I should know later today what my idle power is like.

And then... I get to restructure all our data stores, backup processes, etc. Oh fun.
