Power Consumption (8.18)

Plasmas draw different amounts of power depending on what's being displayed onscreen. In the Panasonic TC-P50VT20's case, a bright screen can draw almost twice as much power as a moderately-lit scene. Fortunately, the TC-P50VT20's power draw isn't ridiculously high even at its worst. Expect to pay around $36.45 per year, but if you're watching content that contains significantly more bright scenes, that figure can jump up by $3 or $4.    (More on how we test Power Consumption.)
