TC Advanced Reptile Electricity/Energy consumption calculator

If you have problems using this version, please use the basic version by clicking here.

Design notes:

  • Calculations for house temp are only for information (currently still under research)
  • Stat calculation is based on testing under my home environment using a well know pulse stat. In theory if my physics is still up to scratch a dimmer stat, pulse stats or on/off stat should consume the same amount of electricity as they heating a source/volume to the same average temperatures.

Please report any problems here.

Notes: Price per unit is only an average and will vary with energy company. Contact your energy supplier to get your actual unit price.

Volts, Amps, Watts, Mega Watts, Mili Watts?... What are my watts???

An adaptor - Output - 19.5volts 3.34A (3340mA)

Output: 19.5volts 3.34A (3340mA)

If you are having trouble calculating the wattage, this convertor below should help you:

Having trouble locating the correct figures? Example: For an adaptor, always read the figures for "output" to work out the correct wattage. The photo on the right may assist you - click to enlarge the image.

  • Volts * mA (milliAmps) - Note: 1.1amps = 1100mA

Disclaimer: Values given shouldn't be used as final and this calculator should only be used a rough guide. It's also worth noting that rated values for items will not be constant. Example a TV rated at 200 watt will not constanly drain 200 watts, this is only a max value and actuall consumption will vary with TV brightness etc. So in otherwords, figures are worse case scenarios.
