Streams 6100; how may watts or amps it consumes.

[orangereefer]

I guess since I've got my setup running, I'm trying to calculate how much eletricity my tank will consume. All I know its going to be a lot. Any help on the amps or watts the streams 6100 consumes will be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mel

45W

is that 45w at 100% or an average if one uses the pulse mode?

45W at 100% and 8W at 30%.

That's perfect! I have my UPS hooked up to my Tunzes. If the power goes out it should switch to night time mode. My 6100s will only consume 16watts meaning they can run for about 30 hours with only my battery back up.
