Exclamation Carbon tax compo blown on the pokies

Peoples,

youve probably read/seen news items reporting a recently spike in revenue taken on pokies as the Fed Govt carbon Tax compo has reached the populace.

It dawned upon me the hilarious bit - pokies are on 24/7 (365 days?) and probably consume a lot of power, ergo CO2 emissions!

I did a quick google and I believe these things consume about 200W/h. Can anyone confirm?
