TechTips: Commercial vs Consumer LCD Monitor and TV Differences

If you are looking for a monitor or TV for use in a commercial application, you may be wondering if there is a difference between a monitor/TV that is rated for ‘commercial’ use and one that you can find at your favorite consumer retailer (ie. Amazon, Best Buy, Costco, Walmart, etc.).

Welcome to ToteVision TechTips, the blog that will help you understand the world of LCD TV and monitor technology. Our goal is to help our professional AV and security customers become more knowledgeable about this technology. If you’re a prosumer (and a self-professed geek), then you may also enjoy our tips. If you’re someone who just likes to watch TV and doesn’t care what TV stands for, then most likely you will find this blog a ‘yawner’.

We will do our best to give you unbiased insight on new trends and new technology – separating the hype and v***r from the reality. We will also demystify specifications, and occasionally comment on the related marketing propaganda that may or may not be exactly accurate.

Each post will be under 3 minutes in length as we know your day job is most likely billable. Please enjoy and give us feedback at [email protected]. We value all comments, but we prefer praise.
