Power Consumption in Suspend mode?

Although I use xfce on my desktop, i'm interested in knowing how much power it consumes when put on suspend mode. If the power consumption is reasonably low i would consider putting my pc on suspend for hours or else i would not as it would spike my electricity bills.

Re: Power Consumption in Suspend mode?

Hello and welcome. This isn't really an Xfce question but more of a computer/hardware question, but.....

It varies from system to system (hardware), but generally is quite low (less than 1W for sure). You can buy a little electricity usage monitor that can get you an exact measurement.
