Interesting...LCD power consumption is like running an air conditioner but not this one...
Mitsubishi LaserVue TV: Best Image for Least Energy : TreeHugger
Laser TVs are here, and Mitsubishi is leading the charge. The company announced on Tuesday that they’re releasing the world’s first laser-powered TV.
The massive 65” model is priced at an equally massive $6,999. But there is a reason people are willing to pay so much for this particular technology.
Laser TVs have a much higher color intensity than other TV models, providing a great viewing experience. But they do so at a fraction of the energy use. The LaserVue is claimed to be the most energy efficient large-format, high definition TV available on the market, using about a third of that of LCDs and a fourth of what Plasmas suck up.
So, (arguably) best quality for least energy.
And really, with an operating power of 135 watts, who could argue (Engadget reports an energy use of 96 watts). That’s roughly what a 25” computer monitor uses…but this thing is a 65” TV.
The Mitsubishi LaserVue TV is energy efficient.
It consumes approximately half the power of comparably-sized LCDs, and a third of Plasmas.
