I get that, but they are not the same thing. VA is apparent power vs. W
being real power.
What's more, certain equipment's VA rating is not always equal to W rating,
which is why this mismatch jumped out at me.

I only called this out because the same number has different units on two
pages. Not a huge deal, but something I noticed.

Has anyone else noticed that there is a mismatch between the power units on a Device page vs. the Power Ports page? VA do not always equal W.
page?
