[MVMA] How much power does it take to run a home mesh station?

[Chuck Gelm]

I don't remember the query at the last meeting, but
I was to measure something some power consumption at home at with my 
kill-a-watt®.
So, I plugged into my kill-a-watt a

  * UPS (950 VA)
  * 16 port switch
  * 8 port managed switch (GS108Ev2)
  * 2 foot LED shop light
  * RPi: nc8q-raspbx
  * RPi: nc8q-meshchat
  * NC8Q-M3-Kett (UBNT NanoStation M3)
  * NC8Q-M5-Kett (uTik LHG HP5 XL)
  * NC8Q-PBE-M5-400 (UBNT PowerBeam M5)


After about 8 hours I checked the kill-a-watt and it displayed 26 watts
and an estimate of $0.18 per month usage @ 8.5 cents/kWh.

  Now what was it I was supposed to measure?
