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?

About 150 watts:

Qotum i3 4 port mini pc pfSense firewall
TP-Link 24 port managed switch
Shuttle DH110 SFF PC running Proxmox with Coral TPU running a Home Assistant OS VM with the Coral passed through for Frigate and an Ubuntu VM running Jellyfin, *arr stack and other media stuff
Lenovo m910q running Proxmox and a bunch of VMs for docker and testing stuff (RHEL, Debian 11, Windows 10 Enterprise N)
HP ProDesk 400 SFF running Proxmox with a Debian 11 VM that is my "daily driver" OS
An ancient AMD FrankenPC cobbled together from old parts that runs Ubuntu 20.04 baremetal and exists only to house a few IronWolf drives totalling about 24TB.

All of the systems except for the firewall and fileserver have i7-6700T CPUs - 4 cores, 8 threads, 35 watts. Nice chips!
