Powerconsumption N4100+

[aegi]

Hi

As I am very interested to have an energy efficient system (it has to run 24h a day) I was checking the power consumption from the N4100+ and badly surprised...

Without any Hard disk the consumption is 42W !! That is quite a huge... is this a bug or do I have not set the right configuration??

By the way... even if I power off the system, the consumption is still 16W...

My expection is that such a system should run below 10W (without a Hard disk) and below 1W in Power off state...

I am interested, if others have a more efficient system...

Cheers, Andi

How did you measure this?

Measurement was done with a electrical energy meter on the AC-Line.

Something similar like this:
