My son got a plasma tv. When we opened the box it was upside down? Not sure if it came like that from the factory or if someone took it out and put it back wrong. All the items inside were sealed so it didn't appear to have been used.
Manufactures vary on this issue. Usually the damage occurs then the TV set is laid down flat. It would be best to contact the Manufacturer regarding this.
Basically Plasma is a gas cel that is electrically charged to give off light and change color and LCD is Liquid Crystal Diodes that are back lit by a light to see the colors. Plasma use more electricity are heavier and produces more heat.
Lookin for a 50in+ hdtv, 1080p minimum 120hz under $2,100.00 for my PS3 and xbox 360. Which type of tv would be ideal for gaming, plasma or lcd??? thanx in advance
Plasma seems to be the choice in color reproduction and refresh rate for fast moving action. The draw back is that Plasma is a little more vulnerable when it comes to long exposure screen burn in.
i HAVE JUST PURCHASED A KODAK Z981 DIGITAL CAMERA. i NEED TO BUY A MEMORY DISC. i DON'T DO VIDEOS AND DO NOT NEED PROFESSIONAL QUALITY . WHAT WOULD BE A GOOD FIT.
Will heat from fireplace harm lcd if mounted above?
I have a ventless firelog in my fireplace and would like to mount an lcd tv above it. There is a mantel that is 8 inches deep. If I mount the tv above it will the heat generated by the firelog harm the tv?
That may be a lot to ask of any TV. This could cause warpage of the screen if the heat is excessive. Not only do you have the heat rising in front of the TV but also heat from the wall behind. TV's, especially LCD TVs, like cool air circulation. I would test the area first with a outdoor thermometer hung above the fire place. Then check the max operating temp of the TV your want to place there.
