Re: Here's what I have learned about saving money on webhosting...
I think you're miscalculating energy usage... I'm no physics major, but I believe Watt ratings on Computer PSU's are on the 12V side of the conversion... If I remember my high school physics days, 100W at 12V is only 10W at 120V. Not that I actually care.

Re: Here's what I have learned about saving money on webhosting...
Conservation of energy: 100W is 100W.
A power supply drawing 100 watts from the wall will put out 100 watts in heat, noise, and electrical power. You're thinking of amps. 100 amps on the 12v side would be about equal to 10 amps on the 120v side. |
