| DSO screen burn-in worries? |

| MikeK:
Should I be concerned with how much I leave my DSO on? Although it's the older Rigol DS1052E it has only gotten occassional hobby use. And I did the fan mod so it's very quiet. But lately I've started to leave it on for hours during a project work session and wondered about screen damage. Any concern? |

No. LCDs/TFTs don't burn. |

Total non-issue. While it is possible to get forms of image retention with LCD screens, you would have to leave it on 24 hours a day for several years before it's even something to think about. The backlight will most likely wear out before the display panel itself has any problems. |

Great, thanks. |
