Gulp 1.2kw.

Been looking at how to reduce without loosing functionality.

Fridge freezer
Comfort alarm
Ha server inc house audio
Two gigabit switches
Wireless access point
Cable router
Various sensors (one wire,caller id)
12 channel power amp for audio (ahem)
Sky hd
Dect phones
And other bits on standby which really don't register.

But we have knocked off about 400w already. Not particularly happy about
this though:-(
