How much wattage does this pump consume?

There is a formula to convert horsepower to wattage. You can probably look it up on the internet. Sorry, but I don't remember it off hand.

I have mine hard wired to TWO, Dasol 135w, 18 volt nominal solar panels at 45 feet water level pumping up hill 100 feet and I get approximately 200 to 400 gallons per day depending on solar aspect the pump handles it perfectly slows down and speeds up and just works flawlessly knock on wood, this is my second pump as the first pump the basket that runs the diaphragm broke when I was messing with it. For the price you cannot beat it..Gkwholesale rules

1/200 HP, 1.1 Amps. While this may differ from the other answers you were given, my answer is from Little Giant, the manufacturer of the pump. BTW, it's a great pump!

household 110. However, this only worked for a couple months and the pump quit working. It was not worth the price.

I got a B60 for Christmas and measured it with a P3 Kill A Watt.- Mine takes about 4 minutes to heat water from unplugged- When idle, it consumes 5-6 watts, with infrequent spikes to 400 watts to keep heated, and during brewing- After a brew cycle, when it pumps new water it spikes to 1500 watts for about a minute- A brew cycle uses less than 0.02kWh- Mine used a total of 0.67kWh in a 24 hour period including 5 brew cycles- At $0.15 per kWh, that's around 10 cents a day to leave it heated 24/7.

My previous pump was 1 HP; I upgraded to the 1.5 HP and have been running it for well over a year now but have not noticed an increase in my electric bill as a result. I am very happy with the performance and especially that it is so quiet

The pump will run on either 110V or 220V, depending on the way you wire it. The manual shows precisely how to connect the electrical wiring to the pump, for either voltage service you desire.

I checked with my kilowatt, this appliance consumes 215w/1.73a when actively heating.

I do not know but I have not had to use this pump. I bought it because I thought the other one I had quit working - I have had the original for over 10 years and run it almost constantly at least 10 weeks per year. This one I bought last year is my back up. But I have not had to use it.

I run this pump for about 20 hrs a day at 1750 RPM. It uses less than 200watts. The old pump ran for 12 hrs a day and used around 1300watts. 200x21 = 4200. 1300x12 = 15600. Huge difference. My elec bills have been much lower. Also I have had no algae problem at all this summer, and still used less chemicals. I think it's because the water is constantly moving and not sitting still for as long. I have been very happy that I made the change to variable speed.

8.4 amps at 12 volts http://www.xylemflowcontrol.com/marine-and-rv/bilge/rule-electric-submersible-pumps/rule-2000.htm

The pump runs on electricity. It plugs into wall outlet and goes thru a transformer. I've had mine outside for almost a year with no problems.

Being a 1hp pump, the current draw is 6.5 amps. Make sure wiring should handle it. I would advise using a GFI outlet on it for shock protection should the motor windings short out (very rarely happens). That's the Engineer in me worrying about things. Good luck!

this was pulled from the site from where I purchased the pump "...Technical Specs: 115volts/60hz/35 watts (6,000 Gallons every 24 hours)"... - comes to 4.17gpm

This unit operates on 110. The outputs are 110 which control the pumps etc.

It is a variable speed, it works flawless, right now i am using 93% less energy. It depends of the size of your pool, mine is a 26,000 Gallons, the maximum amount of water that can go trough my 1.5" plumbing is near 42 GPM and i do it in a 1300 RPM basis on that pump, and it is using only 170 Watts per hour. Regards!

The one I put in was rated for 240vac at up to 10amps, normal running I am only drawing about 1.5amps and running at 1700rpm This is a very quiet running pump, you have to be standing right next to it to hear it run, very happy with it. It was very easy to install if you know electricity at all, I have the veriable speed, which you can program easily to set minimum and maximum speeds, good instruction manual with it, draws way less electricity than old one.
