I'm trying to understand your measurement: 0.3amps/20 W.
Are both measurements from the Kill-A-Watt?
0.3A * 120V = 36W; not 20W.
Is the difference in wattage due to the power factor? Is the power factor 20W/36W = 0.55 (at no load)?
What does the electric company charge you; 20W or 36W rate?

.3 amps/20watts...=480watts a day. So every 2 days or so a Kw is used.
