How Much Electricity Does a Sony PS2 Use?

After testing a Wii, I thought I would try a console from an older generation to compare the difference, the Sony PS2 was the best selling console of it's era selling hundreds of millions of units world wide. But how much energy does it use?

Standby: 3W
PS2 Menu: 25W
Opening Disc Drive: +3W
Scanning Disc: 30 - 35W
In Game: 30 - 35W

For information on the electricity consumption of other products check out "How Much Electricity Does a ... Use?"


Please Note the energy use figures are taken from an energy monitor and are not scientifically analysed, therefore the range and margin of error is greater. If you would like a specific product tested let us know and we will endeavour to check it out.
