So you find out how much energy it uses and then what?

You throw it away, and smug at how much you're saving.

You can be sure it wont use much power to run this..

Might get one be good to see what the TV uses on standby. I refuse to believe it is as wasteful as people make out

So you have to expend energy in one way or another to determine what you're using? Isn't that nonsensical and pointless?

Yeah but batteries also have a carbon footprint and cost ... and so the cycle continues!

My television uses between 90W and 210W when it's turned on, depending on brightness and backlight settings.

My energy monitor registers 0W (which means between 0.0W and 0.5W) in standby.

It's hardly the "upto 50%" that some people claim is it
