How much power does your home lab take? (lemmy.world)

Mine runs at 30watts at idle.

That powers 4 switches, 1AP, and my proxmox system (framework laptop motherboard) which runs my router and my services.

What is everyone else's usage and what does it power?

Around 100w usually for:

ccr2004
crs309
old epyc 7601 server (about 60w, 8 HDDs with spindown, 5 ssds and a mcx311 10G)
homeassistant raspi separate from the main server
poe switch for phone and ap.

All connected to a UPS so measuring is easy and power usage is constant. I would prefer lower as power cost is very high but there is not really anything significant to save at the moment as the server board has no standby function and i need it most of the time.
