Default Trig TT21 + TN72 TABS ADS-B Out Install working great....

The extra ~2/second broadcasts from the transponder is likely lost in the noise compared to all the interrogations a transponder otherwise gets. So go by the specs or better just measure the TN72 + GPS antenna power consumption on the ground and add that to your power budget. The few mA at 12V effective current draw from the GPS antenna should have small effect as well.
