Power consumption data

Two successive prints :

One long print :

One small print + some idle time :slight_smile:

One week of prints :

One month of prints :

(everything here in PETG + PEI textured plate, european country / 220V)

Conclusions :

  • Idle is indeed consuming 10 Wh since one of the past firmware update
  • Max consumption is never higher than 70 Wh
  • For a very rough calculation with approximation one could consider 1 hour of print = 100 Wh
  • For an average usage (which is my case), one can consider a few kWh per month (like 6-10 kWh per month) - for comparison, without 3D printing, my monthly consumptions for the flat (lights, servers, …) is 500 kWh each month
