Unfortunately, they don't make it anymore but it was a Vizio E261VA. The advertised power draw was 33.8W but that was only when it was first powered on. It dropped considerably after that. It's LED backlit and has an ambient light sensor. I would look at the 2014 Vizio E-series line up and see what they have as a replacement. Be careful though because on Vizio's site and other sites they tend to mix the 2013 and 2014 lines together. You can tell the 2014's from other years because there will be a -B# (# = number) in their model names. For example: a 2014 70" E-series would have the model number E700i-B3. It MUST have a B for it to be a 2014. I have been looking at the new one's and there are 23", 24" and 28" TV's with an advertised 22.77W, 25.7W and 25.8W power draw. Even the 32" has an advertised draw of 32W. You can get the smart or non-smart versions, doesn't matter on draw. Make sure the unit you buy has an ambient light sensor. That's the key to the low draws.
These will all draw less than ANY cheap ass 12V TV that so many like to promote here as being low power and efficient. Even when run through an inverter. I have yet to have anyone here on the forum get lower than my Vizio and its 20W draw.
