My current Efika1 setup draws about 25-30W (running but not under max stress). But I haven't tested the gfx card under 3d stress yet...
Over the thumb that is a good 10W for the gfx card, a good 10W for the display and ~5W for Efika+hd.
With an Efika2 it will be signifcantly less when using the 5121 gfx and no additional gfx card.
On the display side I am hoping to reduce the energy uptake to the half (there are ways). My goal is to reach ~12W for the entire device operating (but not under max stress / display with medium load).
Solar shouldn't be too much of an issue then.
