Hey! \u00a0We all know that properly inflating your tires get you better gas mileage. \u00a0But did you know that properly calibrating your plasma TV can improve your set’s energy performance? \u00a0I didn’t! \u00a0But while I was searching for some technical information about how to connect the aforementioned antenna to my Panasonic\u00a0TH42pz700U I stumbled across a review on CNET that illustrated the following performance enhancements from “calibrating” the set. \u00a0I had no idea that this was possible (nor do I know exactly how to do it do any of you?) \u00a0But that’s a significant savings of about 1\/3 of the juice!<\/p>\n
