LCD Backlight - Leave it on or off?

Am really looking for an answer from an LCD tech, but also interested in other opinions.

On my LCD monitor is it better to just have the screen blank out after a number of minutes or to actually have the backlight turn off (Sleep Mode).

The debate is if it is harder on the backlight to run all the time or to turn on and off 10 or 15 times a day.

Mine claims to have a useful life (50% output) of 10,000 hours.

Your input is appreciated.

E-mail if you want.

I have 3 15" flat pan's and when I'am not using them or away I leave the cpu's on but shut of the flat pan's...cycle the off button on each panel. Not shure if the sleep mode actually shuts off the back light tubes. 😕
