10W idle for edge appliances is crazy when you think about it.

On a yearly basis if you lower consumption by one watt it saves you 8.5kWh My network and internet access needs between 1-15W, I save about 80kWh compared to this setup. Even with one watt less it actually makes sense if you care about many installs.

My rate goes to infinity at the darker times of the year.
