Title: Power calculation check Post by: rkbHD on March 26, 2013, 05:40:51 PM Hi I am trying to work out the power cost of running a Bitforce Jalapeno, please can you correct my formula if it is wrong.
Price per kWh: $0.25 Wattage of hardware: 4.5W 0.0045x24x0.25 Making its power consumption only cost $0.03 a day Is it really that low? Thank you Title: Re: Power calculation check Post by: christop on March 26, 2013, 05:51:16 PM Yes, 4.5W is pretty low power, and your calculation looks correct.
I checked your calculation with the power of Google: https://www.google.com/search?q=0.25*usd/(kilowatt*hour)*4.5watt*24hour%3D (https://www.google.com/search?q=0.25*usd/(kilowatt*hour)*4.5watt*24hour%3D) |
