what is the power draw on this thing?

250 Watts. That's the actual power drainage from your outlet on your wall. (And the electric bill as well).

Not being a expert on these things, looked in 'Specifications' in the Operating Instructions book that came with the unit, under 'power output' 2X100W. Have had this unit for over a year, and it has done everything I wanted.

According to PCMag.com the power supply is 450W. I didn't open the case to verify though.

It draws 4 amps (48W) according to label. I have one and works great for us.

Not sure exactly... but I didn't need to get any additional power supply to make it work... just plugged it in.. and has been working great since purchase.

it's 65watts, so it all depends what else you are running. I'd suggest to use a power supply calculator online to figure it out.

I am not sure about the power requirements for that, but it is a high quality item. My initial thought is that it would do that without any issues.

I never really measured it, but I'm sure it is in the mW. I powered a whole circuit board with a micro-controller and off a car battery adapter stepped down to 5 volts. You can also look up the specs on it and it should give you the power ratings. Nice unit!

450 if I recall correctly. Pretty sure it's somewhere in the specs. Maybe at the manufacturer's site. But I also got a 650w power supply.

Its a 500 watt power supply you could probably google it. It shouldnt have much effect espically if you are already running a desktop.

depends on other hardware, graphics card, number of harddrives etc. google "psu calculator" and compute your power needs

Real life usage shows 250-270W power draw which is 2-2.25A. Better than 3.4A really but still not as good as 2.1A for CX2500 model. Measured with TED5000.

that's what I am doing - here's what i am finding...the control item (using a kill-a-watt) is still drawing .005 amps when everything else is off...i know this is practically negligible and in the scheme of things it's not really gonna matter money wise, just led me to the question that if the most least power consumption device (i.e. -0-) was the control item there would be absolutely no draw whatsoever. Thank you for your replies and if I am completely off base, please let me know

Power Draw is 14W. These LEDs are very bright and I am very happy with them. I have two and wished I had more.

The instructions say that it draws 18 watts. So a 12V 2 amp (or higher amp rating) power supply would run it.

I just emailed the company tonight, I was wondering the same... "draws 45 watts" :-)
