The other day I noticed that my Bolt I draws around 65-70 watts while browsing the web, out of curiosity I checked out the idle PS3 and it was at 160W

Around 205W, though I should state that I have a launch 60GB "fat" PS3 which pulled the most juice of all the models.
As Nav mentioned, I just used a Kill-A-Watt meter. Edited by Tidgxor - 20 May 2014 at 12:18pm |

I still have my launch 60GB PS3. It plays my PS2 games for me.
