Ours is the "older" pi 1, model B. Here's the cpu info:
processor : 0 model name : ARMv6-compatible processor rev 7 (v6l) BogoMIPS : 2.00 Features : half thumb fastmult vfp edsp java tls CPU implementer : 0x41 CPU architecture: 7 CPU variant : 0x0 CPU part : 0xb76 CPU revision : 7 Hardware : BCM2708 Revision : 000e Serial : 000000003fefbcf0It uses less energy if you aren't running stuff like HDMI. http://www.pidramble.com/wiki/benchmarks/power-consumption

Model B would be 5 watts if you want to turn on USB/Eth ports. Model A or the earlier B was 3-4 watts.You specifically need a 1A USB port which is where a lot of people have problems.The newer one (not sure about the one with built in WiFi) was 5-10 watts which really sucks at 5 volts. Those power supplies are more difficult.Josh Luthman Office: 937-552-2340 Direct: 937-552-2343 1100 Wayne St Suite 1337 Troy, OH 45373On Mon, Feb 29, 2016 at 11:36 AM, Bill Prince <[email protected] <mailto:[email protected]>> wrote:Raspberry pi is cool. Almost a year ago I set up an older model pi (model B I think) to run our weather station. It runs headless; no monitor, no keyboard, no mouse. It's only connection is a USB for power, and ethernet. I think it burns about 2.5 watts. Ours uploads all the data to Wunderground, and I manage it through ssh. bp <part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com> On 2/29/2016 6:25 AM, Jaime Solorza wrote: http://www.pcworld.com/article/3038992/hardware/faster-raspberry-pi-3-available-for-35-with-64-bit-processor-wi-fi.html
