    Just in an attempt to be a bit more accurate, let’s assume the individual user’s television and internet router use about 900W

    An average router uses between 5 and 20w, and modern LED televisions use between 30 and 180w (on the high end). Even a worst case scenario, like an uncommonly large 60" older Plasma TV would only use around 600w.

      Yeah, I almost added “and they most certainly do not” to the end of that sentence, but I was trying to underestimate a little as well.
