The I&B Ministry has denied that the STBs critical for switching to digital cable service consume 20 watts of power each. It claimed that the STB consumes only eight watts of power, which is less than what a CFL light consumes.
The ministry was responding to reports in the media suggesting power consumption by STBs is much higher than claimed by the manufacturers. The reports have come at a time when the government is pushing the industry to move at a rapid pace to meet the deadline for the first phase of digitisation in the four metro cities of Mumbai, Delhi, Kolkata and Chennai.

so its better to turn off the stbs while heading out if you dont return for an hour or more so that you can save money and energy too.
