Power budget

Each supply is compared only with the modules it actually feeds. Which module sits in which case, and which supply feeds it, is recorded in connections.yaml (confirmed by the owner, 2026-09-20), and the sums below are computed over the knowledge graph by tools/build_graph.py, not by hand. This is a paper budget from published figures, not a measurement.

Supply Rail Draw (mA) Capacity (mA) Load Modules With no figure
Behringer CP1A power supply (rated) +12V 795 (lower bound) 1000 80% 15 1
Behringer CP1A power supply (rated) -12V 349 (lower bound) 1000 35% 15 1
Behringer CP1A power supply (rated) +5V 0 (lower bound) 500 0% 15 7
Cre8audio NiftyCASE (peak) +12V 304 1500 20% 10 0
Cre8audio NiftyCASE (peak) -12V 174 500 35% 10 0
Cre8audio NiftyCASE (peak) +5V 49 500 10% 10 0

Load is draw as a share of capacity. A rail marked lower bound omits modules whose figure no source stated. The NiftyCASE figures are labelled peak by the maker; its continuous capacity may be lower.

What each supply feeds

Space: Cre8audio NiftyCASE 3U: 84 of 84 HP; Custom Eurorack case (gutted Sony reel-to-reel) 1U: 60 of 84 HP; Custom Eurorack case (gutted Sony reel-to-reel) 3U: 141 of 168 HP. The custom case's 3U figure includes the 4 HP CP1A. 1U-format (Intellijel) modules use their own row, and their HP is as listed by ModularGrid.

How much to trust it

66 module draw figures feed these sums. 57 are attested correct by the owner, who sourced the draw values from the manufacturers (see eurorack/attestations.yaml); the attestation is recorded separately and does not change each field's evidence status. 6 are zero-draw assumptions for passive modules; those were inferred, not sourced, and are labelled inferred on the module pages. Supply capacity figures are not covered by the attestation.
