As title says. I think my PC is using like a max of 500w when it’s juicing but idles for less. I was thinking of using an ecoflow high grade setup for this. Anyone have experience doing something similar?

I might switch to a small micro tower setup by Dell or Lenovo that uses like 120w max. The new Mac minis seem to cap out at 39w though which is crazy.

    Well the first question is what software you NEED to run, then we can figure out hardware.

      I ended up figuring out im averaging about 120w on my desktop which isn’t bad at all.

      A web browser, a code editor and some docker containers or binaries. Nothing incredibly strenuous. Like I’m not gaming.

        So effectively light enough that it could run on a raspberry PI 4. Well that would put you under 10W
