Tablets Power Consumption

This web page documents a variety of tablets and their power usage. You can take a look at these measurements to get an idea how much electricity your tablet is using. These measurements will help you determine how much it costs to keep your tablets plugged-in.

The measurements are taken using an electricity usage measurement device, such as a "Kill A Watt" (see "Related Links" below). If you measure the electricity usage of your automation devices, please update this page and add it to the list below.
