I recently grabbed a power station for emergencies and thought, why not see what my Centauri Carbon eats for breakfast? Turns out, it’s pretty polite most of the time 43–45W at idle. But don’t get it started on preheating… it hungrily spikes to 470–500W! 
Once it’s warmed up and running, it chills back down to around 45W as nothing happened.
A UPS, much smaller then your station, seems like a great idea for power outages. How much can your station provide.
Hi @samca
Thank you for posting what you found. I have a couple of printers here that I am not sure I want to know that number… lol
Nice to see some of the mainstream printers are more sippers than gluttons.
