Last time I checked, these were the measurements at the wall:
Jalapeno: 35-45W
Little Single: 120-130W
SC Single: 240-250W
Those are ones I've tested directly. I've heard that a typical 500GH MR is ~1200-1300W.

I'm running a BFL 50GH/s Single and it's using 242W. You'll also need a PC to run it so add that to your usage, or use a Rasberry Pi like I am as it uses bugger all. If you want to work/live in the same room you run it from you might also want to factor in cooling as it puts out a bit of heat, and the fans make a bit of noise, but not as much as a Multi GPU mining rig IMO.
Well what about if it was 6 months ago,these things would make alot of BTC,but i would still need to know its power draw from the wall,why would they not tell there customers about it before paying for it
Probably because if you knew, you wouldn't buy their garbage.

This is a key factor with bitcoin mining as you have to leave them on 24/7 so its important to know its power usage,why would they not display it?
