So you used FUD to convince him to waste electricity. The MTBF of the switch was probably 30k cycles.

- AndrewThrowaway 5y agoI can't remember the exact model of course but it must have been some 2000s SONY WEGA Trinitron. Quick search says it uses 0.3W in standby. 30k cycles / 365 days / ~4 cycles a day (morning news, evening) is ~ 20 years of clicking. Let's say TV is in standby 20h per day. So ~ 146 000h * 0.3W will be ~ 44 000Wh or 44kWh. 44kWh * £0.16 or so equals to ~£10.
