For sake of staying on topic:
I wonder how much of a difference self lighting sets with LEDs make energy wise, versus a set lit from above with lamps? Obviously it would only be practical in certain circumstances, but it would be an interesting experiment.]]></content>

@justsomekidpro Yeah if its a laptop your gonna need a laptop battery but i thought you were on about the battery you need to keep your clock working and thus software from messing its self up.

Actually, it would. Turning down your screen brightness uses a lot less energy because the lights in the screen don't have to shine as brightly, and don't need as much energy to shine dimly.]]></content>

[quote=Real Brick]No, no, absolutely not, they have made our highways green, they have made our homes green, they have made our leisure green, but they will [b]NOT[/b] make Brickfilming Green![/quote]
I don't know if its the same there but here the government is taxing everything and using the money to build crappy wind turbines and the like, its kind of unfair.
But i do like the idea of saving on electricity bills.

[quote=Specever]

Lower screen brightness.[/quote]

Not going to save energy.

[quote=Specever]
If possible, use only one lamp and turn off the other.
Set your lamp on a slightly lower setting.[/quote]

Energy saving light bulbs mate. You can get 8 watt bulbs that give off 40watt equivalent.

Also buying Lego in its self isn't very eco-friendly. Especially for you guys outside of Europe.]]></content>

			<content type="html"><![CDATA[It's an interesting idea, I think the best way is to make sure your lamp and computer aren't working while you aren't. Personally, I'm going to keep my brightness, as I fear a lower brightness might give me an incorrect representation of the image, and I might end up with an over exposed image as I would try and compensate for the lack of brightness. It's a good idea though, and I'll welcome any other tips.]]></content>
