The life of Plasma and
LCD HDTVs is 30,000 to 60,000 hours. If you take the lowest of these estimates 30000 divided by the average household viewing hours of 151 hours per month and divide that by 12 your Plasma or
LCD HDTV will last a little over 16.5 years.
LCD TVs versus Plasma Televisions versus Projector Technology
