Doubtful. Once it reaches its operating temperature, it'll cycle on and off.
If you really want to know the exact usage, Northern Tool Company sells a device for around 27 bucks that you plug into the wall and then plug into the device. It will tell you the watt usage or amps. You can find their online store at www.northerntool.com.
You be surprised how much some stuff draw and how little other things do.

If you look on the bottom it should tell you the watts. That is what they use. Slow cookers can be quite large and use 600 or more watts.

They are commonly sold on the principle that they dont use a great deal, But I'm personally not convinced that they are altogether a good idea and the stuff always has a certain flavour to it no matter how you season it or what you are cooking.

No. They are usually around 100W, which is as much as a conventional light bulb. But they aren't on all the time as they turn the heater on and off automatically with a thermostat.

dont you think that it nasty to call them slow, with the proper training and education, they could be as quick as a normal cooker.
