According to an article ""Smarter Switching" by Glenn Derene in the January 2009 "Popular Mechanics" magazine, page 99:
Has anybody else heard about this 10x power saving version?
Glenn was the moderator of a CES Session that included Steve Lee of SmartLabs, so it is possible Glenn had inside information. I know there has been power draw discussions before, but I hope every Insteon switch & module is not wasting 7 watts 24/7.That's because Insteon relays are electrical devices themselves. Each one is a tiny computer that draws about 7 watts (the new generation technology that's launching this month is expected to draw 0.7 watts).
