I made a consumption measure of the CL 650 with an instrument and got 380W if I remember well.

The number of hours operation are misleading as all depends on tank size and environment.

I have a 4x1.5x1.5 with a small sump and the chiller goes on about once every hour for 10 mins to mainatin T at 26-26C.

Numbers of hours is just a basic guidline.

Like what you have say it all depend on

1. Capacity of tank.

2. Type of lighting.

3. Hours of lighting on.

4. Length of pipping between the chiller and the tank.
