Current Draw of Servos

I have two of these
http://servocity.com/html/hs-425bb_super_sport_bb.html
They are standard sized servos
What is the average current draw can I expect from each one ? Minimum and maximum is good too
The reason I can't check draw myself is that I lost my good multimeter somewhere in my mess of a workshop, and the only one I have is a multimeter which can measure up to 200mA.
Thanks,
Eric

Depends on how much torque you give them
Given no other knowledge, expect between .25A and 1A on a servo. That one I'd guess about .3A if you use it for wheels.
