I have a fit2 here and it draws 6 watts. That's including an internal 500GB low power hard drive. My SqueezeBox draws 3 watts even when powered off so it seems very reasonable that you could leave the fit2 on all the time and never worry about it going to "sleep" or powering it off. -- agillis rip, tag, get cover artÂ… All you do is insert the CD! http://vortexbox.org agillis Lead Developer VortexBox ------------------------------------------------------------------------ agillis's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=21140 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=70547
