Got myself some energy monitoring Zigbee plugs and made an interesting discovery
-
Yeah I use Linux for my servers and my HTPC, but I never really hibernate or sleep those so I had no idea if it might occur there too. It's great to hear this is not likely to be an issue - thanks
-
Ok, just be sure it has an integrated circuit breaker otherwise its just....a surge protector. You'll also need to identify what load it triggers at. For example, I use these on my gear https://tripplite.eaton.com/isobar-4-outlet-surge-protector-6-ft-cord-3300-joules-diagnostic-leds~ISOBAR4ULTRA and they're rated to 12A which should protect a 15A rated smart plug. I put rated in italics because errrryone is buying CE (instead of UL listed) smart plugs.

Did you check the bios?
-
how do i do 1? having timeout to suspend and lid close to suspend would be great. and id like to see some example scripts!
i had pretty much given up on standby with this one.

If it gets the wife approval you know you are on to something
-
Questionable approach since a cheap 'surge protector' could very well start a fire

I recently bought a Mac Mini because music production on Linux had me fighting my tools more than using them. My Linux box is a 7800x3d/7800xtx. The Mini idles at 4w, while the 78000xtx alone idles closer to 50w. I use the mini for everything non-gaming now.

I'm not OP or the right person. Wrong recipient lol. But info was noted for my own use.

What unhealthy eating habit are you indulging in at 21:45?
-
Current spike from both freezers starting up

Will grab some when I back, but assuming you are using
systemd, it's easy if you follow this old but good method: https://blog.christophersmart.com/2016/05/11/running-scripts-before-and-after-suspend-with-systemd/If that doesn't work out of the box, it's likely because you're hitting S1 instead of S3, but give that test script a shot and let me know how it goes!
-
i will test that out later today, thanks!

100W while idling seems like way too much?
-
FYI - the cluster is pulling 115-140 watts.
- 1x Mac mini 2014, running OMV as a dedicated NAS (i5-4308U, 16GB RAM)
- 4-bay Sabrent DS-SC4B, attached to Mac mini (3x 4TB WD Reds in RAID5, 1x 4TB WD Black as hot spare)
- 1x 8TB WD backup drive (it's something)
- 2x HP Elitedesk 800 G3 mini (or G4, don't remember), both running Proxmox (i7-7700T, 32GB RAM each)
- 1x Dell Optiplex 7050 SFF running Proxmox (i7-7700, 32GB RAM)
All running multiple VMs (Docker and other) and LXC containers.
I'm impressed, honestly. I was expecting 200+ watts minimum. It'll be interesting to see the spikes as it's used over time.
-
I'm surprised! Seems like it should be more, but I haven't done any wattage calculations in a while, so maybe power efficiency really has gotten that much better.
Do you know if the drives were spun up or down at the time? I know idle vs. active makes a difference, but if they were spun down entirely, that's kind of cheating.
-
I watched it as it booted, didn't pull much more than 150 watts. But it'll be interesting to see how it goes over time.

what kind of driver could the keyboard be using? lsmod shows nothing beyond the HID driver, but thats baing used by the external mouse which works normally after sleep.
lshw shows it going by /dev/input/event6 or something like it?
-
Spaces before a full stop? Really?
-
You got a pro managing it?
\sigh
