Aura Frames are WiFi cloud connected frames, which means they require a constant WiFi connection to the internet and an electrical power connection to display the photos. The exact data and electricity consumption depends on the individual frame usage.
Data Consumption
Photo and video uploads, as well as occasional firmware updates may require multiple gigabytes of data per month, so we strongly recommend you use WiFi rather than a mobile data plan or hotspot.
Electricity Consumption
The frame's power consumption is 10Wh while it is awake, and 2Wh while it is asleep. In order to reduce energy consumption, Aura will automatically go to sleep (enter a low-power mode with the display turned off) when you turn off the lights, or when you have set a schedule for your frame.
