How much power does this use?

I"m sure you can find that information on the device specs, and I'm sure it's very low.

4 watts I had this on all winer and spring for my 19 yr. old Siamese and didn't notice any difference in my power bill. I uses as much energy as a little nightlight.

The unit has a UL label on the bottom that says 1500 watts. I doubt if it actually uses quite that much power. I don't have a clamp on amp meter and decline to build a rig to measure the voltage and current while it is in use. You could measure the amount of water, the temperature change and calculate the power required presuming perfect efficiency. All of that I decline to do as well. Sorry all I got is the 1500 watts.If you are worried about current draw on a given circuit I expect that this thing will draw around 12 to 13 amps. That is a guess not a professional opinion. I retired and put my license on inactive. The unit has a UL label on the bottom that says 1500 watts. I doubt if it actually uses quite that much power.

Runs all the time . Not sure about the watts . Very little effect on my electric bill, if that's what worries you .

.25 watts per hour according to my engineer husband, very low power, capable of running off a cell phone charger. But can really make the sound project!

HI.Thank you for your question.A power supply/power consumption : AC100V/40W

I use mine in my boat and when I'm not at the dock it runs on an inverter. Don't know the specific power draw but I have a big 4D battery and it lasts somewhere around 30 hours if I don't recharge.

very low power consumption . I love this unit , its the best unit you can buy.. im an mechanical engineer I know what I talking about

My owners manual states that the power consumption is 35 to 80 watts depending on which fan setting is used.

The power consumed is approximately 1 watt (much less than a typical night light). The pads use between 16 and 18 volts depending upon model. Other electric pads in North America use 120 volts. It also has a 10 hour automatic shutoff feature.

at least 1300 watts, I believe. I just use the standard wall socket in my home (american). not sure what you would need if this was being used overseas.

1500w if I remember correctly. Ours has been returned for the 3rd time and we still don't have it. Their service to the customer is horrible. If you happen to get an operable one, and it stays operable, they do a good job.

I have no idea!!! I keep pulling it out, turning it on, using it at meetings for anywhere from 1/2 hour to 2 hours, turning it off, then doing it again. I also use it for emails in the morning. Hadn't thought about where the power comes from... Now I'm worrying. �

It doesn't seem to require excessive power. Ours is pretty basic and it works fine.

Though it's hard to answer without specific numbers, probably hours. It will power my pic and monitor for 20 minutes, you should be able to get 3-10 times that.

I don't know how much power's consumed by it when not charging, but I leave it plugged in for easy charging. My guess is probably not as much as an alarm clock though.

I don't know the wattage, but it plugs into a 110 outlet. It doesn't strike me it uses much energy.
