Measurement

Calculation strategy: Fixed
Measure device: Shelly Plus Plug UK
Measure method: Manual
Measure description: Measured manually with a Shelly Plus Plug UK (230 V UK mains, AIR-1 on its own USB adapter, adapter included), polling the plug's Switch.GetStatus apower every 2 s and averaging 45-60 s per state after settling. Firmware 26.7.23.1 (ESPHome 2026.9.0), SEN55 and SCD40 fitted, Bluetooth proxy enabled. LED off: 1.15 W (1.14-1.16 over five runs). At brightness 255: red 1.42 W, green 1.39 W, blue 1.38 W, orange (255,120,0) 1.42 W, white 1.80 W. White at brightness 75/50/25/1 %: 1.49/1.30/1.14/1.11 W. Power rises with brightness squared (ESPHome gamma) and roughly with the sum of the colour channels, so the template is 1.15 + 0.66 * (brightness/255)^2 * (R+G+B)/765, which fits every point within 0.05 W. With the Bluetooth proxy or the SEN55 disabled the base draw will be somewhat lower.
Mains voltage: 230 V
