Question:

Do I damage my LCD monitor if I turn it on and off often?

I have an LCD monitor that often times I turn it on and off because I was listening music(played on computer) and the light produced by the monitor was annoying me. In one day it didn't started and the computer mechanic said that an electricity shock broke it down, but he repaired it. I don't know if this had caused the problems but I'm a bit skeptical. Now, I have another monitor, that I want to turn it off and on often when I listen to music, do you think that it will cause it some damages? Looking forward for hearing your answers! :)

Answer:

Doesn't harm it at all.
well it's the same if u turn on and off a light bulb eventurelly it'll break
A cotton or mirofiber fabric dampened (so as which you would be able to no longer squeeze any greater water out of it) with water. in case you reside in a no longer elementary water area, or have silt on your water, then use bottled water. If that would not get it out then attempt a 50-50 isopropyl alcohol - water combination. If that would not get it out then attempt organic alcohol.
Every time you turn it on, electricity surges through the components, and will cause wear and tear on the electronic switches. Why not just toss a cloth over the screen if it bothers you so much
Frequently turning the monitor on and off does put a stress on the power supply and various circuits as well as the power button itself. For example, one common failure is when the repeated change in current over time actually causes solder at a connection to melt, and eventually it will break the electrical connection completely, resulting in monitor failure. Turning down the brightness of the monitor doesn't carry such risks.
