I had a 42 plasma tv from Panasonic (one the first models that came out at that time). Using a wattmeter, I realized that thing sucked 300W ! Now I use a TCL 55 inch that only draws 50W and between 17W and 20W if lower the brightness. Not sure I can find something better for that size.
Doing the same search again, on AO in 2024 and there are now 9 F and 1 E (and 13 G) rated OLED TVs, so it would seem they are starting to get more efficient
The C2 (also 55" version) dropped down to 81 kWh/1000h and the newer version for next year is expected to go even below that.. truly amazing how much things change in a couple of years
That is just a very complicated way to say Watt. 1kWh=1000*1*3600=3600000 J. So if you divide it through 1000h, which is 3600000s, the result is 1J/s, or 1W!
My 21 inch CRT consumes 35W and was on like 300 hours a year, basically using like 10kWh. My 32 inch FullHD Bravia was on 2 hours a day, and it uses 75W, so that is 55kWh. These OLED TV's do like 100W and run for 3-4 hours a day, that is 127kWh. My CRT deserves a A-label posthumously.
@TheRealJohnHooper and is probably on all the time. My point was to relate to time spend on consuming screen media as a household. Our electricity use rises, not falls.
@@xfghffhfg Yeah, but we don't. 14 inch baby 4K Oled.... To make things even worse: back then we had a single TV with 5 people. Today they probably all have one for themselves.
Hi E.V. Does it. On March 1 this year the energy ratings for T.Vs were reclassified in that a set @ "B" rating previously became a "G" rating under the new terms. This was introduced to remove the confusion whereby A+++ , A++ A+ and A had developed in the system previously. In any case your TV is currently costing about 1Penny per hour to run, - not bad value don't you think?

I’ve been looking every where for a good explanation of kWh/1000h and finally a explanation that makes sense! Thanks a really informative video.

@@lovemadeinjapan This is much more precise, then just saying Watt in terms time usage.
@@HiltTilt its actully the exact same

You have to consider the size and resolution differences in the TVs too. Bigger Higher res TV of any variation is going to consume more Power.
@@HiltTilt Duh.... You don't get my point.

@@lovemadeinjapan If you used the same size of screen it would be lower.

I just bought a new tv and was so confused why they all seemed to be so terribly rated for energy
good things cost kinda sad but i would not go back active speakers and oled just too nice experience

Slightly more I think ...?
Didn't know the energy scale changed
That energy take is for full brightness, and HDR. plug in your tv in energy meter to see real energy takes! Nobody use TV for full brightness.
th-cam.com/video/O8K_2Rj3Y2E/w-d-xo.htmlsi=q67Uu0Uisi5Oj93H. That is for real energy takes
They probably rate so bad because of the incredible short lifespan and horrible built quality.
Can't understand your accent
