Amazing video, mate. I've been looking for someting like this for a long time. I usually leave my PS4 Pro in rest mode with game suspended, but USB ports turned off. That's an option you haven't tested and in my testing it consumes 2-3Wph. Also- I don't think Quick Resume uses any energy. I've been moving and had my Series X unplugged for a week. When I turned it on after the week I could resume last few games exactly where I left off with no issues.
Excellent work on this series mate. Very much appreciated.
Presumably the new PS5 console is cheaper to run due to an extensive re-design.
