sonicboomaudio Posted February 5, 2023 Report Share Posted February 5, 2023 Hey all! I'm considering purchasing a UPS for my live gigs and I'm trying to find out what the power consumption is for a Lectrosonics Venue 2 receiver. I don't see any mention of it in the manual, only the power requirements which is not what I'm looking for. TIA Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drpro Posted February 5, 2023 Report Share Posted February 5, 2023 Karl W. at Lectro would be the go to person. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny Karlsson Posted February 5, 2023 Report Share Posted February 5, 2023 From what I know , and is available right now, I would recommend taking a look at Meon Life from RA, or the Zeus system from PSC. For extended power backup, check out Jackery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mlohninger Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 Unless I'm misunderstanding something, it's in the manual, no? "10 VDC/2A to 18 VDC/1.2A" So, it would like 10-18VDC, and the current consumption is 2A at 10V and 1.2A at 18V. If you calculate that, that's about 20-22 watts, depending on voltage supplied.

S Harber Posted February 7, 2023 Report Share Posted February 7, 2023 I have something like this to see what each item draws on my cart wired to 4 pin xlr etc. A great tool to have around and to see what gets used. https://powerwerx.com/watt-meter-analyzer-inline-dc-powerpole My older Venue 1s draw 1.12A/15Watts Here's a chart of what I use on my carts, what the items draw, and how long they should run off their respective carts batteries.
