crafty1289 said:The TV, is it a plasma? If so, its probably drawing 300 watts, as much as a small heater. Compare this to your old CRT set which probably used less than 100 watts, and you'll suddenly want to watch TV less
Not as power hungry as you think.
Microdisplay rear projector: 0.11 to 0.15 watt per square inch
LCD: 0.16 to 0.41 watt per square inch
CRT: 0.25 to 0.40 watt per square inch
Plasma: 0.30 to 0.39 watt per square inch
