Your Questions About Save Energy Pictures

How much energy cost will I save with an LED TV?

I’m looking at purchasing a Samsung HDTV. I am comparing both the LCD and the LED options they have available. Assuming I don’t care that much about the difference in picture, the biggest difference seems to be the cost, and the amount of energy they use. If the LED model uses 40% less energy, as it claims, how much savings is that for me, assuming 100 hours of use per month.

What desktop background color/picture saves the most energy/battery power, i.e most efficient?

trying to pick out a desktop picture that will give me the most battery power

compare picture window single pane with energy star window?

i have a single pane picture window 93.75″x64″. If I replace it with an energy star window (u30) is it worth it in energy savings? How many gallons of oil could I expect to save per month.

Why does the lightbulb in the “Tip” bubble when asking a question look like one of those energy-saving bulbs?

Is this Yahoo!’s way of showing their support of environmentalism? Or is it just something whimsical and quirky?

Tried taking close up pictures with white background but always turn out grey? I’m using Canon 550D / rebel?

Hi,

I own a Canon 550d and I currently shoot close up pictures with a white background with the 18-55mm zoom lense. The subject seem to trun out ok except for the actual white background, it turns out to be a grey color when I load up to my computer.

The only light source are my room light bulb (low wattage energy saving type) and a soft box with a daylight bulb close up on the subject matter. i use a flash and I use Manual mode with auto focus. I have tried increasing the ISO with no affect, have also tried increasing the flash or decreasing,still had no affect. Also tried lowing the depth of field but the whole picture was too contrasted ( bright)

What could I be doing wrong? could the limited light source i.e low watt lenergy light bulb, in my room be a problem?

any help very much appreciated. Thank you very much.

How much energy does a Plasma Screen TV really consume?

I bought one of those plug in energy meter things to measure how much energy my appliances are consuming.

My 46″ LCD TV is rated at 260W. But in actual fact it was only using 205W because of brightness settings, backlight settings etc. I then twiddled around with the settings lowering the brightness, backlight and put the Energy saving setting (which dims the backlight furth) to high and got a reading of only 77 watts but the picture is too dark.

So I have now put the energy saving setting on Medium to make the picture brighter for everyday use so it is using 89watts and a button to make it brighter when needed, like in daytime viewing, which bumps it up to 147 watts.

Any way, I just wanted to know if any Plasma screen owners have done the same thing and what were their results on measuring the actual electricty consumption.
