It's power needs are modest and that 4.4A _at_120VAC (USA) is under
worst case conditions at maximum load. It's pretty difficult to
configure
a UVII to the max unless you have 4 rd54s, TK50 and Flooppy and even
then your only "close". In any cas e power wise the box is an easy one
to run at home and not too bad on heat output for modest configurations.
