Mine runs at 30watts at idle.
That powers 4 switches, 1AP, and my proxmox system (framework laptop motherboard) which runs my router and my services.
What is everyone else’s usage and what does it power?

What did you get to offset the cost? I’d like to do something but idk where to start looking.
I went with simple micro-inverters (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09N8T2741/) paired with some standard panels (https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0BRKK73QN/) Micro-inverters can’t be used when doing a full off-grid system but they are great at reducing energy bills. Super easy install that required no change to my home’s electric circuits.
