Hey all, I figured we'd go the extra step and put all the info on an official FAQ for energy consumption in standby. So here you go!
Yes only few have changed on design but twice the power consumption. Other solution on this plug a smart plug and only turn it on when you use it.Howcome the WiiM Amp Pro has twice the standby energy of the regular amp?
6w is the same as an LED light bulb...
Somebody should go back to school! What you mean is 0.84KWh (the usual measure of energy consumption) or less than 21p in the UK.If the ultra draws 5w then during the week it draws 84w even if I do not use it, this is unacceptable.
These numbers will be a problem with the new EU directive!Hey all, I figured we'd go the extra step and put all the info on an official FAQ for energy consumption in standby. So here you go!
1 hour is 5w 24h 12w 7 days 84wSomebody should go back to school! What you mean is 0.84KWh (the usual measure of energy consumption).
Makes no sense! Watt is a unit of power whereas KWh is a measure of energy consumption,Kto
1 hour is 5w 24h 12w 7 days 84w
Do you mean 2.4 hours?Kto
1 hour is 5w 24h 12w 7 days 84w
5W x 24 x 7 = 840 Wh or 0.84 kWhKto

It's about 43 kWh per year. So it all adds up. If you have several devices that have similar standby consumption you wast money and especially uses unnecessary resources. Thats why the new EU directive is enforced.Somebody should go back to school! What you mean is 0.84KWh (the usual measure of energy consumption) or less than 21p in the UK.
Source:From 2027, devices in networked standby must not consume more than 2 to 7 Watts depending on the product.
How loud is room volume? my current WiiM amp spends most it's life at about 45%
Device Model Standby Mode Power Consumption (W) WiiM Mini 0.94 WiiM Pro 1.67 WiiM Pro Plus 2.92 WiiM Amp 3.4 WiiM Amp Pro 6 WiiM Ultra Less than 2
My TP-Link Tapo P110 says that the Amp Pro draws 2 to 3 W in standby and around 11 W in operation (room volume level).

Do you have an obsession with LED light bulbs?5w per hour is the same as an LED light source at full power.
45% isn't a sound pressure level either.How loud is room volume? my current WiiM amp spends most it's life at about 45%
I mean I can attempt to measure the SPL if you like, but I have limited tools at home.45% isn't a sound pressure level either.
It's also not directly related to power.
No, but a light source for a room using the same wattage as a device doing nothing is a suitable comparator to how high that standby wattage is.Do you have an obsession with LED light bulbs?
