How much power saved with Display Idle Timeout enabled?

[hankej]

I am wondering if anyone knows any kind of monetary amount that is saved when you have your Display Idle Timeout set.  We have a bunch of phones that have this option.  We currently have ours turned on and set to the default 60 minutes.  

We are wondering if it is even worth having it set or is the savings so minuscule that it doesn't matter.

Thanks

Hello,

I think you will find all the info you need on the following link:

For example the CP-8845 on Power Save Mode consumes 2.0 Watts and on Power-Save Plus mode less than 1 watt.

Below you will find how you can set on phone on a Power Save mode

Thank you.  This information talks about the Energywise Power saving option.  I'm talking about the Display Idle Timeout.  When the phone isn't used for x number of minutes, the display turns off.  I'm assuming this is to save power.  I'm just curious how much power is saved by doing this.  Is it even worth the effort to configure them to turn the display off?

Thank you again,

joe

Hello Joe,

I am almost sure that when the phone is set to Idle Display Status (upon Display Idle Timeout) gets on “Power Save Mode” power consumption.

Lets see if anyone else have something to add on this.
