Power
As might be expected, the 4K Pro version of the A139 uses more power than the 2K standard version, it has twice the resolution and is recording nearly twice the bitrate, but it only uses about half a watt extra, the Starvis-2 sensors have improved power consumption so the increase in power consumption is less than expected. These are approximate figures for 1 channel recording, not including any losses in a hardwire kit, and after the power consumption has stabilized (after the super capacitors are fully charged):
- A139 Standard, 1 channel recording, wifi off = 2.6 watts.
- A139 Pro, 1 channel recording, wifi off = 3.2 watts.
