I’m running the mini on 7w (averaged over a month). It’s networked at 10gb, which is hard to do on mini pc/nuc without using a lot more power. My other Nucs use 70ish (nuc 9 extreme) or 35 (nuc 10 with thunderbolt dongle).

The mini is also much more powerful.

The is was a bit of a nightmare to tame but I’ve got it sorted now.
