traction control wattage?

any idea how much power the traction control uses? electrical or otherwise?

i have the option to turn it off,so i can do some savings while off

any ballpark number would help,as right now i have no idea, it could be anywhere from 5 watts to 1oo w ,or 1 hp ....no clue

...basically none when it's not being commanded.

...however, it'll become significant when/if all four wheels are being commanded by the ABS system.
