Hi, over the years I have taken the power readings of a few cameras and related devices (mostly due to running cameras in battery powered installations), and have saved them on a file, so I figured I would post them here in case they become useful for anyone else, some of these are clearly not cameras (like the walkie-talkies Retevis RT24 charger), but I figured I would leave the power readings any way.

Hikvision DS-2DE7225IW-AE
Testing on this camera was rather limited due to a lack of time, however after having tested several hikvision cameras and one of their ptz and with the tests that were done with this one it seems to behave quite similarly to the other PTZ camera, the DS-2DE4425IW-DE, so it would seem that different components power consumption stack up.
One thing to not is that this camera is suppose to have an heater, however given that it was 24 degrees celsius at midnight when it was being tested, the power consumption of such component is extremely unlikely to have been measured, hikvision does say this heater consumes 6w maximum, but their numbers tend to be highly inflated, where the real power consumptions are always much lower than the advertised maximum.
Like the DS-2DE4425IW-DE it also seems to have a blower style fan that is always on.

The camera has a blower style fan inside which I assume might be to cool the insides of the camera, however I have not been able to test this, also it seems like you can hear the fan from outside, so it is almost certainly always on, not only due to the sound, but due to the very unusual power consumption while IR leds are off, either way should consume very little power given that it is extremely small, kind of like an hotend of a 3dprinter style fan.
Was able to reach an average of 10.33w while rotating on all axis and zooming and with IR on on maximum, and a maximum power consumption of 12.95 so the maximum consumption of this camera should be around this, and it seems obvious that the consumptions of the individual components stack up.

12V powered by DP832, AVG - 6.67w | MAX - 7.13w. streaming and IR leds off, constantly rotating (at medium speed/auto rotate), rotating at maximum speed makes little to no difference in power consumption.

OKY3498-1

1.10w Standby power consumption with an output of 54v and an input of 24v


24v in 54v out, 4w output and 5.62w input
24v in 54v out, 8w output and 10.10w input
24v in 54v out, 10w output and 12.38w input
24v in 54v out, 12w output and 14.61w input
24v in 54v out, 18w output and 21.40w input
24v in 54v out, 25w output and 29.65w input
At bigger wattages than this active cooling is likely required to make it work, since at even 30w the output voltage starts to drop and keeps dropping, and the chip gets very hot.
All around quite inneficient and unpractical for bigger loads, this is likely due to the wide range of voltage output the device can put out.

24v in 5v out, 0.50w output and 0.600w input
24v in 5v out, 1.00w output and 1.200w input
24v in 5v out, 2.00w output and 2.375w input

24v in 5v out, 8.00w output and 9.333w input
24v in 5v out, 16.00w output and 18.283w input
24v in 5v out, 32.00w output and 38.000w input

this chart is roughly correct, so in doubt it can easily be followed.

At close to 35w (more than 1 amp above the 6 amp supported), the regulator "shuts down" although it still consumes about 3w when doing so and the coil fixed inductor heats up to about 90ºC, unlike on standby where it consumes almost nothing and doesn't really heat up as a result.

this chart is roughly correct, so in doubt it can easily be followed (at 90% or above efficiency in most cases above 0.5amps)



Retevis RT24 multi charger.

3 amp at 5v charging, this goes down until the lights turn green (finished charging), the battery has 1100mah at 3.7 or 4.07w, so the 6 RT24 have a total of 24,42w.
With all the walkie-talkies charged and turned off, the charger consumes about 0.170w at 5v.
After the walkie-talkies are charged if they are turned on while still in the charging port, the charging is not resumed, it is necessary to remove the walkie talkies and put them back on the charger.

1.220w measured by just looking at the DP832, only connected to the ethernet, and with wifi disabled. Disabling the wifi seemed to make almost no diference, maybe around 0.100w or something.

Olinuxino nano

0.443w idle, it fluctuates quite a bit, sometimes it's at very low ranges like 0.290w and other times it's in the 0.600w, these readings were taken over a range of around 30 minutes, where there was no interaction what so ever with the device, and absolutely nothing plugged into it.

at high amperages (starting at 3 or 4 output amps), the power usage seems to slowly increase, due to the increase heat, so heat dissipation is required.

Test with a lilin LR7022 through POE provided by vivotek ND8322P.
31,808w avg, 32,592w max a while after turning on, with hard drive (Seagate ST1000DM010), one camera (IR led on, microsd constant recording) vivotek IB8369A, one camera (IR led on, microsd record on motion) lilin LR7022, recording to HDD, not watching feed.
54,096w avg, 55.160w max a while after turning on, with hard drive (Seagate ST1000DM010), four cameras (IR led on, microsd constant recording) vivotek IB8369A, one camera (IR led on, microsd record on motion) lilin LR7022, recording to HDD, not watching feed.
This results in about 6,832w average power consumption for the lilin which is about 69.5% efficient given LR7022 consumes only 4.824w (with IR measured in the same day as the vivotek measurement) on average, there is clearly also not really much in the way of improvements in DC/DC conversions regarding the POE capabilities of the ND8322P.
