So far, I've accounted for about 670W of the ~4 kW base load power the lab draws at the UPS, or about 17%.

Here it is broken down by category:
* Storage - the three Ceph cluster nodes
* Networking - core router and one of the 40/100G switches
* Backup - my friend's offsite backup server I host

And the UPS power is only 63% of the building-wide power consumption (average 6.3 kW). I have no data so far into where that 2.3 kW is going - some is normal house stuff like cooking, lighting, HVAC, the living room TV, etc. But a nontrivial fraction is also going to lab overhead like lighting and cooling and unless I get a current transformer on the minisplit feed I won't have visibility into that.

This rack also contains (not yet on managed PDUs): * One more of the same model 40/100G switch (so likely another ~40W) * 3x old Cisco 24-port switches that I expect are major power hogs and plan to replace with LATENTRED's whenever I have time to finish them. I suspect these are 100+ watts a pop....
