57 Watt Classic UV Sterilizer

[kadamik]

I am hoping this is the right place to post this. I just purchased a 57 Watt Classic UV Sterilizer from Aqua. I have it all setup and running, but looking at my APEX it is only showing 43 watts used. Did I get one with a faultily transformer or is that normal to only use 43 watts. I purchased it from Amazon, and I am worried that they sent me the transformer for the 40 watt model. Hoping someone has this unit and can confirm.

Thanks

My Apex also says my 57 watt UV sterilizer is also using 43 watts.

A lot of people I know who have the 57 watt AquaUV show about 43-44 watt draw on an energy bar.

I use the Aqua Ultraviolet 80 Watts and my apex says it’s using 70 Watts.
