It's always wild reading the power draw people wrote here.
I knew it was because this is a US & Europe centric site and many people from homelabs actually run Enterprise size rigs, but my 4 member household run on 2kW for the entire house lol and 75℅ of that is just A/C we use at night.
My household of 7 averages 900 watts year-round.
On cold winter days, we can average 6kW over 24h, but peak is more like 10 I'd 13. Not talking just about my space heaters with embedded computing power and TBs of storage, but the whole household.
