It has been reported that LED TVs consume 50% lesser power when compared to Plasma TV sets. Modern technology is obviously great, but all kinds of gadgets such as computers, games consoles, TVs, DVDs and stereo systems to name a few, all consume power and energy for sure. A report says that, within the sector of consumer electronics, TVs and videos totally account for about 75% of all the electricity consumption.
So, before you buy a TV, make sure to know exactly as to how much power it consumes. Never try to leave any kind of device in the stand by mode, for, eventhough minimal, it is still a waste of energy. And note that all devices do emit some amount of electro magnetic fields which have been, over a considerable period of time, linked to health related problems. Therefore, whether it is a LED TV or a Plasma TV, make sure that you sit at a real safe distance of between six feet to ten feet from the screen.
