There are lots of references through these forums to the power consumption in "deep standby" being less than 1W.
Does that figure come from measuring the 12V DC consumption? Or the 240V AC consumption?
Measuring the AC consumption of my box with a (good quality) clamp meter shows the following results:
- running ~21W
- standby ~19W
- deep-standby ~10W
- rear-panel power switch off ~9W
- wall outlet switch off 0W
I've been trying to optimise (ie minimise) the power usage but in practice deep-standby doesn't save as much as I expected.
Do I have a peculiarly in-efficient power brick? Or is this normal behaviour?
