Power Consumption (9.36)

Your TV's cost isn't limited to its purchase price. It outputs a bright light for hours on time, which can get costly. We test how costly a TV is in this section, by measuring its average wattage draw when the backlight is at its minimum, maximum, and whnen it's outputting 200 cd/m². As you can see in the chart below, none of these settings will cost you much.

Below we've made a nice little graph that compares the LN32B460 to a few competing TVs. All the TVs have had their backlights set as close to 200 cd/m² as we could get them. None of them have a particularly expensive yearly cost attached to them.
