Flat Panel TVs are Power Hogs…So What To Do?
Well, in a nutshell, minimize your power consumption! Of course we can’t just shut off the TV and stop watching anything. We don’t have to not enjoy our home theater systems. We just have to watch out for the little things that, when added up, saves a lot of power (and money).
For example, avoiding standby mode saves a lot by itself. When you leave your TV on standby mode while you’re sleeping or out of the house, it’s still devouring power from your sockets. Also, try to buy TVs with the Energy Star sticker — if a model has one, then you’re sure it consumes less power than other equivalent sets.
The article Power Saving Tips for Flat Panel TVs lists a slew of great tips, as well as breaking down the power consumption of different types of flat panel TV. Check it out.
