How much electricity is used? I'd like to know the watts used.

Per Daniel .45 W. I use them with my PS3 to keep it cooler; I agree they do work great and I do not see any effect on the system's power.

We have no idea. I'd ask an electrical person. Don't know "watts" the difference. Sorry, couldn't resist.

The only actual data I have is that the label says 120/240V 50/60 Hz 0.6A. Now, that could be as high as 144 watts. I can absolutely assure you that it consumes nothing even remotely like that. I can't unplug the switch now to measure, but I can tell you that the case is just barely perceptibly warm to the touch. I would guess something in the neighborhood of 2 - 3 watts.

Voltage is not measured in Watts.....5 volts. It draws 0.4 amp or 400 mili Amp most likely. (it also makes sense). But why are you concern about power input??

It is using 54W Light Bulb. You can estimate usage similar to as you run your laptop full time (50W). In numbers it will be about 1.2 kWt/day, 36 kWt/month.

Reading the label on the unit, it says it uses 72 watts of electricity. In my area, where electricity is about 14 cents per kilowatt hour, that seems to be a little less than 1 cent per hour. It's a small price to pay for what the light appears to do.

OK, this is how I think of it. Watts=amps x volts. So from their description, 7 watts = amps x 12 volts. This makes 7 / 12 = amps putting it at .58 amps. I checked the back of the panel. It says 467 mA. Google says 467 milliamperes = 0.467 amperes. Kinda close? Hope this helps.

The voltage is 120 but have no clue on the watts. I can't seem to find it on the machine plate. Sorry.

Chris - sorry so long for reply, either would do, as this unit only uses like 5.4 amps I think.... I'm actually getting a 1000 watter for next time. Hope this helps friend.

I do not know the wattage. They have been using the 2 we bought for over a year now. And they work great

Not unless you are talking pennies. 8 watts an hour means that at an average 11 cents per kwh, it costs 8x24x30 (wattsxhours in a dayxdays in a month)=5760 watts1000 (watts per kwh= 5.76 kwh x 11 cents = 63 cents per month to run.

Not with only this one panel. This is (roughly) 12 volts x 10 amps = 120 wattsLook at your electric bill to see the overall kilowatts you consume. Also you must consider peaks, not just the overall usage. In California, solar installation companies and some power companies will help you figure out how much you need.

Don't know wattage but it uses regular household current and takes about 3-4 hours to fill the container that comes with it. I usually make 3-4 gallons in a day about twice a month. I don't notice any major use of electricity in my bill.

1 Watt = 1 Volt x 1 Amp ..... Amazon says 3.9 Amps so 120VAC x 3.9 Amps = 468 Watts ... From an electricity bill viewpoint that is 0.5 kW per hour while running. It is an inductive load so it is more complicated than that but it is a good estimate.

If you run it on the highest setting, it uses 1500 watts per hour which is 1.5 kilowatts. Our power company charges 7 cents per KWH (kilowatt hour) so if we run it on high for an hour, it costs us 10.5 cents an hour. If you use the lower settings, you use lower watts so the cost is less. Your electric bill should tell you how much you are being charged per KWH.

I have looked at my papers and on the box and on the cord. Can't find the watt rating. Sorry I can't be of help.

Hello, it is 720 watts (6amp). I do not use it a lot, but everytime I needed it performed greatly. Cheers!
