Uninterruptible power supply manufacturers generally don't like to reveal the power consumption of their products. Since UPS devices are generally plugged in 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, even a small power draw can add up over time.
I have discovered that to get Energy Star certification for a UPS, the manufacturer has to submit a "Power and Performance Data Sheet" to the U.S. government, which in turn posts the information on the web at https://www.energystar.gov/productfinder/product/certified-uninterruptible-power-supplies/results.
Below I list the power consumption for some low end UPS products when the system is not under load. As you can see, the values generally fall into the 2 to 5 watt range. This list only includes products which were efficient enough to qualify for Energy Star certification, so you shouldn't assume that any low end UPS will have similar numbers.
