How much power (watts) does this pad draw?

Don't know but I can tell you that I see no change in our electric bill when we use it so it must be very little.Also, its great since there's separate controls on it. My wife heats up her side all night and I just heat my side up about 5 minutes prior to going to bed and then turn it off. Very satisfied with it to date.

I have both the queen size dual zone and twin (one zone) pads. All the zones have the same controller with the same power consumption listed.Input power 120V 1A for a power input of 120 wattsOutput power 16V 3.5A for a power output of 56 wattsThis would be the maximum power usage, the controller goes from 1 to 10.

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.

I do not recall the wattage. I do know that it did not heat up. I sent it back.

The description indicates 65W, but it doesn't actually indicate the watts on the cord. It works for my Dell Vostro 1400.

I really don't know the wattage. I bought three of these over the past two years. The first two work great, nice even moderate temperature and when placed under the bed pad for my cats they love it. The third one was a dud and didn't work at all.

Not sure about the watts. I checked the box it doesn't say. The auto turn off cannot be changed. I think it's a safety measure. It can be adjusted from 86 - 168. It is a great heating pad. I really like it.

Hello, it is 720 watts (6amp). I do not use it a lot, but everytime I needed it performed greatly. Cheers!

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 checked last night. Power ratings are listed in the bottom of the product. It looks like it's 300 watts.

This is not a low voltage pad, But I must say mine works great. Not worried about higher voltage as the power is lowered by the controls.

The U1 uses ~2 Watts. A hub connected to a USB 3.0 port will provided enough power for a few U1 units.

I just emailed the company tonight, I was wondering the same... "draws 45 watts" :-)

Buy a P3 P4400 Kill A Watt meter......they're about 19 bucks and will tell you exactly how much power its using

We have no idea. I'd ask an electrical person. Don't know "watts" the difference. Sorry, couldn't resist.

Sorry 15 should be 15AMPs and 123 watts should be 145 watts.My typing stinks

No it will not harm your pad, your converter should always be a higher wattage.

Hello: Suggest you go to the manufacturers website for that information. They have also posted guides for pad placement and how to use the program modes.The manual says the user can adjust from 0-100 ma.
