				I mean the C64Mini. I'm very picky about the devices I have in my house, so it would be interesting to know. It all started back in high school when we were shown a movie about global warming. It impressed me so much that I removed many conveniences from my life just to help the planet. Now my house is furnished with panels, I drive an electric car and save resources. So yeah, it's really important to me.

				Hi, general USB power supplies are adequate, meaning 7.5 to 10 Watts maximum consumption. The standby consumption should be less than 0.5W due to EU regulations.

				As far as I know, the power supply is very adequate at approximately 10 Wts, which is more than enough for most compact devices without causing overheating or performance drops. Given this efficiency, the system can sustain stable operation even under extended loads, making it reliable for everyday use or small-scale projects. Experts suggest that maintaining such consistent power output not only extends the device’s lifespan but also minimizes unexpected shutdowns.
