I have yet to find manufacturers that supply the required/consumed wattages of their products.
They do however supply voltages. How come they aren't supplying wattages? I'm currently studying to become an electirician and our teacher asked how much it would cost us to run our PC's 24/7 all year round, there's not really any way to give a definitine answer, since no manufacturer supplies you with wattages of their products.

I'd love for manufacturers to supply idle and load wattages. Wouldn't this also make knowing what PSU to buy easier?

Pretty much everything, CPU, Mobo, RAM, GPU, HDD's etc.

As far as I could see, none of the manufacturer websites listed any wattages under specs of their products, only voltages.

That tool is really cool, based on some numbers I found online and my own calculations it actually seems pretty damn accurate aswell, although it only shows load wattages, it's pretty cool
