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?

I'm a simple man with a pi4 for my docker containers, one switch, so not much compared to my PC.

Would probably get a second pi4 if I need more resources.

Im also running a pi4 with docker containers but also my nextcloud instance. Been feeling it's a bit sluggish at times so I recently ordered a cheap optiplex micro, and some upgrades for the ram, ssd and cpu. The pi4 will only be used for pi-hole now.
