A Look at The Latest Generation LED-Lit TVs
Modern TVs are unrecognisable when compared to their first ancestors. With the old models you only got a picture if you sat square on to screen and squinted to make out people and objects. We have come a long way since then and new generations have brought with them such things as wide screen, flat screen and surround sound.
LED-backlit technology is the latest development to find its way into the digital entertainment market. LEDs are cropping up all over the place recently, in everything from car headlights to light-up crystal vases. Their popularity stems largely from their durability, their ability to create very pure light, and their energy efficiency. It is true that TVs do work very well with fluorescent lighting, but as technology continues to advance and more is demanded of screen lighting, a better alternative is now needed.
An increase in demand for faster, slicker and more defined pictures, coupled with a desire for everything to be super slim, goes some way to explain why LED lighting found its way into TVs. People want their phones, stereos and even vases slim line these days, and TVs are no different. As the LED backlit TVs use a special diffusion panel to create an even spread of light across the screen, the lights can be around the edge of the TV and not behind the screen. What this means then is that many manufacturers are able to produce TVs only 2.5cm. There are also benefits in the range of colours available to view and better dynamic contrast.
The LED-lit TVs are also more kind to the environment (and your wallet) than the old lighting. The LED lights consume only around a 4th of the electricity that the standard fluorescent lights do. When the TVs are finally disposed of as well, their pollution levels are much lower than fluorescent TVs. Incredibly, tests have shown that the TVs are safer as well, being less vulnerable to damage from liquid or excess surges in power. That said, it’s not advised that you start resting your wine glasses on top of them, just in case.
