For now the average person can probably jump on this idea to some extent by switching to a tablet where possible. I think the ipad3 is around 4.8watts over a full charge discharge cycle with the charger unplugged after charging.
- rm999 14y agoIsn't a laptop a better replacement? They are usually optimized for low energy usage, and run a full OS. How does the energy usage of this computer compare to say, a macbook pro?
- Someone 14y agohttp://www.apple.com/macbook-pro/specs http://www.apple.com/macbook-pro/specs gives 7 hours of WiFi use and 30 days standby on a 95 Wh battery for a MacBook pro. So, it will be somewhere between 0.1-ish W and 13-ish W for idle state. I cannot find something better. For the Mac Mini, http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3468 http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3468 gives 11W in idle.
- doublerebel 14y agoFWIW I consistently get 11-13w at idle, 7 hours battery under use from my Samsung Series 7 Chronos i7. Obviously Samsung takes cues from Apple but I'm pleased at half the price.
- egsmith 14y agoThat's for a Core i7 Retina MacBook Pro and the 13-ish W power number includes the screen. The 6W number for Fluffy2 does not. Still an impressive hack though.
