   I have a RP4(4GB) sitting here in a Rocktech ISG-502 housing, which includes   
   a 12V DC to 5V converter.  Powering it from 12V, my power supply shows 2.55W   
   after booting (default install, no display/usb devices, one 1000baseT link).   
      
   Without the ethernet link, power consumption goes down to 2.15W.   
      
   That includes the losses from the DC/DC converter and some other circuitry   
   on the add-on board (RTC, RS232/RS485 interface).
