Sansui S32KAHT
The Sansui S32KAHT's certified consumption is 61 kWh per year, which prices out to about $11 at the national average rate — your hours of use scale that directly. That puts it in the most efficient tenth of every certified television — 67% less electricity than the median, ranked 15 of 180. The same unit costs $7.99 a year in Nevada but $32 in Hawaii — electricity rates, not the appliance, make the difference. Note the certified pool here is small (180 models), so rankings shift more with each data refresh.
