The new 47-inch 1080p LCD panel uses a new vertical single side LED backlight technology that helps to consume less electricity while still delivering high levels of brightness. LG claims that although 47-inches in size, its panel uses less electricity than typical panels LCD TV panels 40-inches in size and even normal PC monitors over 20-inches in size.
LG explains further that its panel uses only 28W of power. A typical 20-inch PC monitor uses between 30W and 50W. The LCD panel also delivers 400 Nits of brightness suitable for HD TVs through a three-film structure, which helps focus and diffuse light, together with local dimming technology and energy efficient LED bulbs.
