Misleading headline - it’s a discussion about one Sony TV, that was released in 2015.
Worth checking others, but the headline makes it sound like they all do this.
- nottorp 4y agoFrom the article and the other HN comments, if they have Chromecast enabled by default they do.
- freetime2 4y agoI have a different model of Sony TV that I bought in 2019 that consumes 16W in standby. Not as bad as 25W, but still far higher than I would expect any modern device to consume in standby.
- gempir 4y agoMy sony xr-77a80j released in 2021 and at least sucks down 25W in Standby with Chromecast support on. I think it was more like 28W last I measured.
- staticman2 4y agoI can't reproduce these results with the 77 inch A80J. Running the machine in standbye for 8 and a half hours and testing with a Kasa device consumed 32 wh of power. According to the app I am using it would cost about 6 dollars a year to run this on standbye at .17 cents per Kilowatt hour. That said I do not use Homekit. Someone in the Braviam forum said enabling Homekit and allowing Homekit to turn on the TV causes a huge power draw.
