Power Consumption for internal power.
Power Consumption for internal power

Does anyone perhaps know the approximate power consumption for the webplayer? I am considering a hack for internal power source for possible self powered set-up, or at a minimum a rudimentary internal UPS. Thanks all!

I have been running a WebPlayer successfully with a 5V 3 amp supply for some time, instead of the supplied 5 amp supply. The 3 amp supply runs the unmodified WebPlayer without any problems. I even added a 2.5" HD inside and 3 amps ran everything fine. When I added a notebook CDROM drive the player would no longer boot and the power light would just flash periodically. I have bben meaning to actually measure power consumption in all three configurations for some time but havent got around to it yet. I'll post the results when I do.
