Power consumption of Roku express when TV is off?

Hello there! I just bought a Roku express and I was wondering if anybody knows how much it would consume if the TV is off (powered from external socket). I managed to find online that when streaming it consumes allegedly 2.2 W (I mean not really bad), but I was wondering if anybody knows how much it would consume when the TV is off. Like, if I turn the tv off via the roku I guess it would go into some sort of standby mode while the tv is in standby, does anybody know the power consumption in this state?

Re: Power consumption of Roku express when TV is off?

By default, Roku's go into a power save mode after about 20 minutes. Not sure if there is some website or YouTube video of someone using something like a Kill A Watt to measure usage. Outside of the old Roku 4, the difference between power on and standby is probably rather minimal.
