Power consumption can vary widely depending on what you are doing with each individual product (format/framerate etc). I can get one of the guys to put it on the Kill A Watt EZ box and get some rough numbers for the products with IEC.

Products with batteries are harder because They can be in charging and full power states which would be two different draws.

So, I'll put a guy on it, but it might take a few days.
