Hi, I'm new, this is my first post in this community.

I'd like to ask if anyone knows what would be an estimate for power consume in this nanoPC-T4. I saw that this development board requires an adapter of 12V/2A but I'd like to have a more realistic value of the power consumed.

Thank you

Which display are you doing to use with it?

I have a T4 with HD702 and booting Android, it consumes up to 600mA during bootup. Once the desktop is present, is idles between 320ma and 400mA. I am measuring this with a 12V bench power supply with digital current display, GWInstek, model GPS3303.

On an industrial based unit with the 11.6" LCD I am powering the T4 from a DC-DC module from Traco. It takes in +24V and outputs +12V at 2A. It's a very nice small low cost unit.
