I just wanted to point out, the difference between watts and amps... Normal residential houses only have about 100 amp service... And that is for the ENTIRE house.... @ 120 volts, 240 watts will use 2 amps...

Below is a calculator to determine what is being used... I used 120 volts because that is wall outlet voltage in north america.

My 1200 watt amp only draws 10-15 amps at most, and hasn't yet as i hasn't tripped its 15amp breaker, yet...
