PC monitor power consumption
![[mail]](img/envelope.gif){kind=small}
We've been replacing a number of old CRT monitors with new TFTs, so we thought we would take some power measurements of the old units before we threw them out. Here are the results (all numbers in watts).
| ADI 15" CRT | Acer AL1716 17" CRT | MicroScan M700 CRT | LG L1753S Flatron TFT | |
| on, no signal | 5 | 1 | ||
| on, normal desktop | 83 | 29 | 57 | 22 |
| black screen | 62 | 30 | 53 | |
| displaying "no signal" | 28 | 45 | ||
| Windows "monitor off" | 1 | 1 |
