Power Consumption Data
Here is a collection of real-world power consumptions of different appliances. Useful for comparing with the datasheet values and for doing casual plannings.
Accuracy
The data is not very accurate, because:
- The test equipments are not accurate enough
- The test cases are not standardized
- Most of the readings are from short-term averages, because none of my test equipments can record data
