Further Power Saving Studies (Monitor)

Continuing my previous power study I tested out my two work monitors today to see what differences are between power saving mode, active, black, etc. for both LCD and CRT monitors. Both are 20" monitors so they are a fairly good comparison.

Monitor Type	Action	Wattage
CRT	Regular Background - ON	103W
LCD	Regular Background - ON	43W
CRT	Black Background - ON	79W
LCD	Black Background - ON	41W
CRT	Off	0W
LCD	Off	0W
CRT	Power Saving Mode	0W
LCD	Power Saving Mode	.6W
CRT	Using Blackle - Black Google	82W
LCD	Using Blackle - Black Google	40.9W
CRT	Using Regular Google	104W
LCD	Using Regular Google	43.4W

Clearly LCDs are much more energy efficient, and Blackle actually makes a little difference. I guess I shouldn't leave my CRT (2nd monitor) on all day with just my email client in it.
