Sharp Elite PRO-60X5FD Review Archive

Power Consumption

The different calibration settings we used affected power consumption. The Elite Pure settings produced very favorable results: watching this TV for about five hours per day over the course of a year would yield an annual cost of about $15.04.

Our calibration settings were brighter than the Elite Pure settings, so they produced a higher power consumption cost. When the TV was calibrated for a peak luminance of 200 cd/m2, it would consume roughly $25.78 per year. With the backlight setting turned all the way up, it would cost an estimated $31.83 over the course of a year.
