1.3.1 Maximum power input, or maximum current draw,
1.3.2 Initial freeze-down energy consumption and duration,
1.3.3 Heavy-use energy consumption,
1.3.4 Production capacity,
1.3.5 Overrun,
1.3.6 Impact performance,
1.3.7 Idle energy rate, and
1.3.8 Heat treat cycle energy consumption (if applicable).
