i actually did read through the data sheet but it said nothing about wattage, or amperage, and i forgot about the manual duh.
Ummmm . . .
The Microchip datasheet for every PIC chips states the maximum voltages and currents permitted.
The currents are usually expressed in milliamperes (mA) [ 1 mA = 0.001 A)
You should identify the Absolute max current but then operate at a slightly reduced current.
Then having seen the maximum current for one IO pin, also take into consideration (a) the maximum current for 1 entire port of 8 pins, and (b) the maximum current for the entire chip.
Attached are the 16F1827 (~18M2) datasheet page which took all of a minute to find the data.
And in this particular case the total power consumption (800 mW) is also given.
