- chasely 1y agoNot sure about this one in specific but assuming most of the time the system is idle at ~200W, you’d be looking at ~$25/mo for most states in the US. Peak draw could probably be 2kW for a beefy system so electricity costs could really skyrocket depending on usage patterns.
- cweagans 1y agoPeak draw for the entire cabinet with everything running full bore cannot/will not exceed 1800W (by design).
- cweagans 1y agoI'm currently sitting at < 200W, but I expect that to go up with a higher workload. The SER9s idle at 5-7W, but they can run at 50-60W sustained without thermal throttling. Some reviewers have claimed that they can run at 75-80W sustained for 10-15 minutes, but I think that's pretty unlikely. We have pretty reasonable power rates here (https://www.idahopower.com/accounts-service/understand-your-bill/pricing/idaho-pricing/for-your-home/ https://www.idahopower.com/accounts-service/understand-your-...), so ~$12-20 per month depending on tier.
