Power draw on Hub

I did not see this information on the website or in the user guide. How much power does the hub uses? I am trying to estimate from power backup scenario (to include network router, hubitat, raspberry pi running Google Assistant relay.)

Mine is using 0.23kWh per day.

@Navat604
Are you using ST to monitor the power used by HE?

I don't know what you are talking about.

Need to divide that value by 0.9 to account for platform outage time.

Not quite.....

Oh the shame of it all!

So is it confirmed it's actually about 1.3W? The power adapter outputs up to 10W, but I need to know what the hub actually draws. An accurate figure is critical to me to size up a backup UPS.

I now see up to 1.8W. guess I have too many rules and devices connected to the HE hub.
When in doubt. Just double the backup UPS. It's only a couple of watts so it's not a huge thing to even triple the UPS. You can get one that will last hours for under $50.
