I have an accessory installed on my case that show current power draw. It shows around 180 watts in idle in Mountain Lion, where it shows 140 watts in idle in Windows 7. I can't figure out what might be causing this. The CPU usage is around 1% in idle in both operating systems, also there's not any other drive activity or anything. Hardware-wise the only difference between Windows 7 and Mountain Lion is that Windows 7 is running on a regular 320gb hdd, while Mountain Lion is running on a 128gb SSD, which should be consuming maximum of 3 watts or something under load.
Any ideas?
