Standby Power Consumption of Sonoff Devices

We are frequently being asked lately how much power consumption does each Sonoff device consume when it is not being used. Like any home automation devices, Sonoff requires power during standby for it to keep track of any request whether from the app or from manually switching it off. I did some research and here are some of the data that I found on the internet.

Standby-Power Consumptions:

Sonoff Basic - 0.5W

Sonoff B1 bulb - 0.5 W

Sonoff TH10 / TH16 - 0.6W

Sonoff Pow or Pow R2 - 0.3 W

Sonof 4ch / 4Ch Pro  - 0.1 mW

Based on the power consumption ratings above, it is quite surprising to know that the Sonoff 4Ch R2 and 4Ch Pro has the least amount of power consumption when on standby. When you look at the device, this is the biggest Sonoff device available in the market but it has the lowest power consumption. The reason for this is its chipset. Most Sonoff devices are using the ESP8266 chip but the Sonoff 4Ch is using the ESP8285 chip which only requires an ultra-low power requirement for it to function. Having a 4 channel switch with very low power consumption is a class in itself. Let's do more innovation and automation knowing that we are not spending significant electrical usage. 

We hope that this article had been informative and was able to help you put at ease knowing that these smart switches use a very small amount of power.
