About 10 Watts or 7-8 kWh per month, give or take.
If you have electric heating, you need heating, you have a thermostat, and the router is located reasonably close to where you need the warmth, it will cost you nothing. If all these conditions are met, the same electricity is producing routing and heating and nothing is wasted.
- taylorius 4y agoI've often thought that electric heaters were rather wasteful, when one could get some processing for "free" (in energy usage terms), and still heat the room.

- quickthrower2 4y agoHeat pumps are more efficient than space heaters though
- yrro 4y agoOnly if you have resistive electric heating. If you have a heat pump, you lose out on efficiency (remember that for every J you put into a heat pump, you get >1 J of heating out!)
