Smart-Home & Consumer-Tech Calculators

Free, practical calculators for setting up a connected home — smart-home running costs, Wi-Fi mesh coverage, TV sizing, storage, internet speed, and battery life. Educational tools for planning your gadgets and network, not professional or financial advice.

Smart-Home Power Cost Calculator

Turn a device's wattage, daily hours, and your electricity rate into the daily, monthly, and annual cost of keeping it on — and add up the standby load of the whole house

Wi-Fi Coverage & Mesh Node Calculator

Enter your home's size, floors, and construction to see how many mesh nodes or access points it takes to cover every room with a solid signal, and whether one router is enough

TV Size & Viewing Distance Calculator

Match a TV to your room both ways — a screen size for the ideal seating distance, or a seating distance for the screen size that fills your view, tuned for 4K or 1080p

Data Storage Needs Calculator

Add up photos, video, music, apps, and documents for a total in GB and TB, plus the drive, phone, or NAS size to buy with sensible headroom so you don't run out in a year

Internet Speed Needs Calculator

Count your simultaneous 4K and HD streams, video calls, gamers, and smart devices to get a recommended download speed and plan tier — instead of overpaying for gigabit

Battery Life Estimator

Enter a battery's capacity in mAh, the device's current draw, and an efficiency factor to see runtime in hours and minutes, plus the energy it stores in watt-hours
