Power consumption on H3/H3+ in real usage

[elsmandino]

Hi there.

I am looking for a low power consumption server and the H3/H3+ seems to be a potential candidate.

This (about half way down)

seems to suggest that idle wattage is 1.9w, which is crazily low for an x86 system.

Can anyone confirm whether this is the sort of wattage they are getting in practice.

The idle mode with an Ubuntu Desktop OS power consumption was about 2.5Watt while a headless Ubuntu server OS showed near 2.0Watt.

There is a table and a power transient graph for several different real world use cases in this WiKi page.
