Well, given that the RamKeeper has an external power connector and you can
plug it directly into a wall socket (thus bypassing the IIg's PSU), I would
say very little.
A power adapter from a Sega Master System console game system will work, and
can be had on eBay quiet cheaply (I got one for $2 plus shipping).
