How are you comparing the efficiency of a SMPS and a transformer? They are different things. Would love to hear more.

- Dylan16807 5y agoYou look at the percentage, such as 95%? I'm not sure what you're asking. Add up the losses in each conversion, plus the losses from the house wiring.

As of 2016 the US EPA mandated even greater efficiency of 97% or greater: https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-10/chapter-II/subchapter-D/part-431#subject-group-ECFRf791a7b3e315557 https://www.ecfr.gov/current/title-10/chapter-II/subchapter-...
