I was wondering this since our systems are getting so old now.
I have a setup with a Sharp CRT, with my 7800 and ps1 hooked to it. Its in my office so I play it on lunch breaks and after work, usually not for more than 1 hour sessions on weekdays.
My question is (mainly for the crt) is that ok to be powering it off and on like that? I also have everything on a power strip with a switch that I turn off so the wall warts etc aren’t wasting power when not in use.
I haven’t owned one in a while, but yeah you don’t want to leave your CRT TVs on if they are not in use, same for the game consoles. They don’t have those fancy sleep timers.
Oh yeah and they suck power. I just hate modern tvs and they are always laggy feeling. Unless you get a gaming one and im not going to do that
