Measured current draw, PowerFlarm Brick
PF manual does not list typical power consumption. Because PowerFlarm
can supply power to other devices, this is a variable figure. The manual says only "up to 1.2 Watts", or 1 amp at 12V. That's rather a lot, so I decided to check. My PF brick is connected to a Butterfly 57mm flarm panel display and ClearNav (via serial port). I measure 170 mA at 12.4 VDC, which is reassuringly small. -Evan Ludeman / T8
