Plasma flat screen television technology seems cutting edge and brand new, however it was first developed in the 1960s. Once considered out of reach of the average consumer, They certainly have become much more affordable since the technology has become easier to mass produce.
The modern version is fast becoming a staple in home theaters and is often accompanied by additional high-tech accessories such as surround sound speakers. The feeling of sitting in a movie theater is replicated pretty accurately in a home theater that features a good flat screen plasma tv can offer. The largeness of the screen and the superior colors and picture quality all contribute to this effect.

These pieces of technological prowess owe their amazing color to unique technology that utilizes neon and xenon gases. These inert gases move between two flat glass panels and are completely safe. They produce over 16 million colors including a perfect black, which enhances the cinematic quality of the picture.
One way to measure the longevity of a plasma flat screen television is the number of hours to its half life, which occurs when the quality of the picture is reduced by half. Most have approximately 60,000 hours to half life. An excellent warranty that includes free or low-cost service will contribute to full enjoyment of every hour.
Even though the screen is much larger than the typical cathode ray televisions on the market, most of your models are approximately four inches deep. The thinness of the device allows a great deal of flexibility in determining where to install it. When mounted on the wall it can save a great deal of space.
However, with all the advantages of this technology, it is extremely delicate. This should be considered when placing your flat screen plasma tv in the home. Even small bumps can cause unexpected problems in screen quality and if a repair is possible it can be quite expensive. Parents should consider installing one so that it is high enough to avoid flying toys and rough housing children. Wall mounts that tilt are available so that they can be angled down if installed high on a wall.
As they become more widely available, specialized furniture, cabinets and stands have also come on the market. These accessories are available to match the personal style of every plasma owner. Home entertainment cabinets made from classic hardwoods can hold plasma flat screen televisions in addition to other equipment.
Those who favor contemporary decor can find metallic stands with glass shelves. Consumers may also utilize existing tables and cabinets. Regardless of what furniture is chosen to house one, it should be particularly sturdy. The delicate nature of these fine televisions mean that it cannot be bumped and it definitely must never fall off its stand. Even though the cost of plasma flat screen televisions is coming down, they are still not cheap. To safeguard this investment all mounts and surfaces should be fully tested to hold more than the weight of the television itself.
Budgeting considerations for your purchase should include the cost of the unit itself, any needed furniture and accessories, any warranties and the effect on the homes electric bill. Todays larger versions use a lot of electricity. However, this technology is constantly evolving. In the near future, consumers will have access to more energy efficient models.
