This tells you enough you need to know about that test:
Limitations of the test
- Small sample size, so it won't show the variance between units of the same technology
- Extreme case, where TVs are running 20 hours a day with the same 5.5 hours loop. You will get a better lifespan at home if you use the TV less and with more varied content.
Really should be- for typical but "extreme" burn in
TV set to typical levels- not dynamic.
loop of a gameplay of a game with fixed HUD symbols, say GTA for 8 hours straight
then channel with very bright white logo say Euro news, 8 hours straight
then TV show in 4:3 with black bars left & right, 8 hours straight
then movie 2:35 with black bars top & bottom, 8 hours straight
