Electricity consumption by wiim mini

[Junaid]

I am planning to buy wiim mini and pro. I would like to ask what is the electricity consumption of both devices in different modes. And what effect it would have over my electricity bill if used on daily basis. I live in Pakistan, and cost of electricity is too high.

Secondly can i get some parameters like power, voltage and amperes so that i can get some rough estimates of the electricity cost consumed by this device here in Pakistan through online Link like this

Also confirm do these tools are helpful.

Here's a thread on this for the pro.
The mini's power requirements would be about 2/3 I believe, being 1v vs 1.5v for the pro.

Current consumption measured for the Mini is around 150 mA in idle to 220 mA during a playback over toslink.

Thank you for your response. It will be a great help for me.

and the pro.. exactly how much does it need?
(to observe I suppose, at the analog output at max level and with high signal? , significant differences according to the uses?)

Pro, ethernet, idle - around 250 mA, playback on the analog 2vrms output - highest one 380 mA, booting - highest one 440 mA.

ok,
we can conceive why, to have a certain margin, the 1A can be a little "short"
although in simple wifi and digital output it must be enough (?)
(but hey can be good anyway to look for a really clean power supply "to do well".....)

I didn't measure very short current peaks, so I can imagine 1A can be not enough especially when inputs are also active and DSP processing involved.

"idle - around 250 mA " = Standby mode?

Thanks.

Thanks.

Yes, something like that.
