According to the specifications the max power draw is 1650W. All of that is converted into heat so it's like a small space heater.

It thought it was an interesting analogy, so I looked up the size of a typical sugar crystal. It's between 450 and 600 microns. So these chips are 3 to 4 times smaller than that even.
