Fun observation from a year of my UPS load graph; while it's very noisy, that big drop in November is when I reinstalled it with a newer OS version and rebuilt the whole installation; so it made a noticeable difference! I'm not sure of the actual power - this UPS only gives me a percentage and it's very rough anyway, So I suspect just a watt or two, maybe clearing out old cron's and having a newer kernel is worth it!
