[TenTec] Naive power supply question

I have always left my linear power supply for my rig turned on.  I guess I 
thought it would make the components last longer.  Is this false 
economy?  The unit produces a little heat so it is consuming some 
electricity.  Got any idea how much electricity it consumes with no load?
