Selfhosters what is the power draw of your entire setup? And have you done anything special to manage it you’d like to share?

Including all network equipment I use around 110kWh of good ol’ 120V 60Hz USA juice per month. Averaging about 215 watts of power draw for my systems. Nothing amazing, but I like to think that it’s a conservative setup for everything I accomplish with it. I’m paying around $25 a month for my setup. None of that includes my work PC or personal PC, just hosting infrastructure.

Other than trying to make sure all power states are available on my server I haven’t done a lot of power conservation.

I’m curious what you all have.

    NAS sits at 24w idle. Security cams are drawing 19w of poe power, but I suspect there is a bit more being used in total. I have another NUC using probably around 24w max.

    I’ll slap some power meters on the switches and main nuc and try get some more accurate numbers.
