Question about power consumption

Link: http://www.amazon.com/Acer-Iconia-W5.../ref=de_a_smtd

Assuming this was plugged into an electrical outlet, I need to know how much energy it would consume (on average) when turned on and used (lightly) for around 14 hours. I typically get five hours out of the standard battery on it, if that helps.

Probably runs at something like 10-15W with light use.

sing my android phone with PdaNet app to get internet on the train via blue-tooth. Very cool! I'm easily getting 6 hrs of battery life browsing the web, even more with the wifi off and reading my Ebooks using kindle, my skype sessions with my grand daughter are incredible! The video

New to the unit is an APU not a CPU. What the APU is a combined CPU and GPU. On the APU is a 256meg graphics card and I have to say it performed very well. The battery life from my use was showing about what most reviews say 5 to 6 hours. The screen can handle at lest 5 touch points which I tested. Not sure if it handle 10 it is hard to get 10 fingers on the screen at one time.

I wouldn't be concerned with the VAC power (120/220 VAC) its relatively cheap ...

Watts/volts = Amperage if that is your question ... read the parts manual or the unit specs it may give the wattage of the adaptor (or an image of its label).

But if you are concerned of a lack of available amperage -- you have a more serious problem there ...

I'm trying to figure out how long it should be able to run off of a car battery.

Did you figure it out?
