What is actual amperage draw?

Dear Sir or Madam, The sheet on on this unit provides the following information: Power Rating: 120V AC, 60Hz, 835W Thank you

Volts x Amps= watts so watts divided by voltage = amps. 80/12=6.66 amps. It certainly draws quite a bit more during startup.

Update on my previous answer since I now have a new meter to measure all DC current draw on my vessel. With all 5 lights on, they draw 1.1 amps of DC power...That is a very low current draw!! I am adding 2 more this winter.

I do not know the amp draw but I recommend not using any cables that come with CCTV systems. I ended up building my own cables using 18 AWG Gauge (power) and 20 AWG CCA (RG59). Cheap cables will not provide the power to turn on the IR LEDs and the camera will shut down at dusk. I purchased a spool of this and recommend it: "RG59 Siamese Cable PE Jacket, 500 ft. Spool, For Outdoor Runs"

The supply brick says 0.35 max (amps, presumably). It only puts out 3 A at 5 V, so the actual draw is probably closer to 0.2 A.

Not sure of the amp draw but these things draw barely anything. They can run off a 9 volt battery for a long time.

NO. this does not draw enough amperage. Hooked mine up with a 20A switch with a 10A fuse. Works great.

joseph I did not check with my amp meter, however is your application special need like low draw will ??? otherwise for RVporch and interior use the draw is very low and I really like for RV use hope it helps gene

Does the digital reading show you a full charge? Is whatever you are plugging in drawing too many amps?

I measured amps through each of the LEDs I bought. One shows 24Ma and the other 26ma. As usual when using leds, amperage is negligible unless you are using quite a few or they are superbrights as in stoplights or turnsignals where there are usually more than one led.

not sure why 2.4 amps is getting discussed..it says right on the package "under half an amp draw" and my meter says it takes about 0.3 far reach from 2.4

That an outlet draws No Power is a misconception. All special outlets including those multiple outlets with Surge Protection draw power. Even an unused charger for your phone (plugged-in but not being used) draws power. The power draw is minimal, but if you have a dozen plugged-in in your home, that ads up over time. You'd have to use a Milli-amp multimeter or call the manufacturer. Usually those things are not advertised. If you have a multimeter, place the leads between (in Series) on either line, but not on both lines at same time, that would measure the volts.

The package lists 15mA but measured only 11mA of parasitic draw. The draw is because of the led, and is pretty good, but I added a switch to turn it off. My camper has about 100mA parasitic draw which is high when compared to a typical car of maybe 30mA.

I am not sure what a draw is but I can tell you it is very powerful for it's size. We are very pleased and plan to buy another for our basement.

Not sure what the draw is, but I run it off a 15 amp circuit and have never tripped the breaker.

It draws up to 15 amps. I have mine for quite some time now and am most pleased with it

It's rated at 2 Amps but only consumes 150 Watts of power so tha actual steady state draw is probably more like 1.25 Amps.
