622 Power Consumption

If you look at the back panel of 622, near the AC power plug it says: "120VAC, 60 Hz, 120 Watts". I do not know exactly what it means, is it average, peak, minimum ?????.

That is only the rated or maximun wattage, I had my 622 plugged into a Kill-A-Watt for 10 days and it was always between 49 and 51 watts, on or in stand-by.. Also had my 42" plasma on the Kill-A-Watt for 10 days and tv is rated at 340w, avg. draw on it was about 200w maybe a little less.

I see about the same with mine plugged into a Monster power center with a meter on it.

Ever touch a 50 or 60 watt light bulb? :)
