Is it harmful for the H9000 to leave it on 24/7 with the screen fully dimmed, electric bills aside? Or better to turn it off when done, assuming it’s used a few hours a day? The thing takes so long to boot up that I’m wondering if just leaving it on would damage it longterm?
Yes, it's perfectly fine to leave the H9000 on indefinitely, as long as your setup keeps the unit reasonably cool (clearance on its sides/top/bottom as possible, and certainly clearance for the fan).
