Calculating energy consumption?
Something in our apartment is wasting away about 50 bucks more power per month than it should.
Out of curiosity, I'd like to know how much power my Playstation consumes, but I'm not very savvy at all when it comes to electricity-related stuff, so I hope someone can do the math for me.
The game console is European, and I am using it in the States with the help of a step-up transformer. It transforms the 100/120V current to the 220/240V that the device requires. The machines specifications say it requires "220/240V 50/60Hz 10W". I could try and draw a conclusion, but I'd prefer not to, hopefully someone who knows about this stuff can estimate how many kWh's this thing consumes in, say, 30 days, assuming it is on 24/7.
