Well, there you go then- measure the power using the power meter
(probably innaccurate at such low power levels), then measure the DC
power by measuring current and calculating.  The difference is the
power dissipated by the power supply.

The power of the whole system is so low that it won't have any
appreciable impact on your electric bill.  If you pay $0.15/kW Hr, and
the SB3 takes 6W, with power on at all times it will cost you about
$0.15/week.  That comes to <$8 per year.

The reason you'd really want to measure the power is to do something
like select a "right-size" battery to operate it, which is why I
suggested measuring the current instead.
