A normal 1046 draws 5 Watts or a bit less than a Panaflo FBA12G12H1A fan.
Unless the DC pump's efficiency is dramatically lower than the AC version, the power draw can't be all that much.
I suspect it's a matter of Innovatek letting Eheim know they could sell the DC 1046's. Eheim may not be convinced there is a big enough market for bigger DC pumps.
