Hello,

Configuration: Windows Vista / Firefox 16.0

I wanted to know if it is recommended or rather not advisable to unplug a plasma screen after turning it off at night.

Thank you in advance for your answers!

    Hello,

    I would like to nuance Gilles's opinion by indicating that older plasma screens (five to ten years old) consumed 4 to 5 times more than LCDs in standby and during operation.

    That being said, I have one of those screens and I leave it on standby all year round because there is no switch and I would have to unplug it.

    Best regards
