How do I know if my monitor is a CRT or LED/LCD. Mine is just a normal monitor

Turn down the brightness or blacklight on your lcd tv or monitor and that will considerably save energy. Try the different settings with your killa watt meter attached. Thanks, Mandalay Wind

@dispariti well, this depends for LED.
there are a few types of uses for LEDs nowadays:
1. constant led backlight (always on, just replaces the tubes in older LCD screens)
2. dynamic like led backlight (gets dimmed when the output on the screen is darker)
3. led only display (every singel pixel is 1 or 3 leds)
with option 2 and 3 it could work, with option 1 it would only be as useful for the LCD screens

Stupid fuck doesnt realise your monitor heats up when it displays light colors. where does the heat come from?

To Eric:
Okay, so Blackle is ineffective for LCD/LED screens, because unlike CRTs they actually have to emit the color black rather than leaving a blank pixel.
Next question: how effective is Blackle on an OLED screen? I know they're only just entering the market and are by no means cheap yet, but I think it's worth asking the question. Since OLED pixels use no electricity to produce black, I would suspect the difference would be far more noticeable.
Thanks for the tip!
