How many watts does a PS1 use?

Answer 1

A lot! I had it going for about two to three hours and used $6+ dollars in wattage. Not sure the exact wattage but our power usually only costs us $1.00 or less even with a laptop, tv, dvd player, vcr, small table fan, stove, fridge and various small bursts of lightbulbs when we use them throughout the day. The PS1 drove the bill up a crap load due to being on and continuing to spin that disk at top speeds. That's why I just play about an hour of my SNES, no spinning needed.
