Does your LCD TV put off heat?

Question

My husband and I just bought a 42'' LG Lcd tv and it puts off alot of heat. Is this normal? The geek squad guy told us it is but he was a little weird i dont trust him so much.

Does this happen to your tv?

Answer 1

LCDs will put off some heat.  It shouldn't get terribly hot like a summer day in Phoenix, but I would say between 80-90 degrees is about normal.

Answer 2

1/3rd less than a plasma or CRT (standard analog).
