Anyone know what the TS2 draws for amperage when running? Couldn't find it on the web site.

I assume you mean the Whole CoalTrol unit? the TS2 is just the Thermostat.
The Power Module/Thermostat itself (without anything hooked to it) probably doesn't draw that much power (<1amp), but with all the blowers & stoker running.. depending on the stove, I wouldn't think more than 3-5 amps total. There is a 10amp fuse on the control box. Each stove has different power requirements.
My Hyfire runs 2 combustion blowers, 2 Stokers and 2 convection fans, I haven't check the total current draw, but I am thinking around the 3-5+ amps. I know my Keystoker draws about 3 amps total with everything running.
Paul can probably give you the exact current on the module itself. I couldn't find in the owners manual.

Right....I meant the control unit itself / power module. Just wondering what its draw is alone. Trying to size a UPS up form stove. Have the amperage draws for the other components.

Very little compared to the motors you are powering. Don't know the figure off the top. Rough guess is less than 5 Watts in the worst case. Negligible compared to the motor draws. Size for how long you want to run the stove motors.
