Another big power savings would be ditching the linear power supplies in old pins and using a switching power supply ... but that is a bit more involved of a conversion . Those older linear supplies are horribly inefficient.

I'm surprised that Stern didn't use them earlier. You can get really nice, reliable, telecom grade 48V supplies for < $100 in low quantity.
