Using a wifi smart plug on a pc monitor, i was wondering if this will damage the monitor at all since turning it off is basically like unplugging the monitor while it's still turned on , it can damage the display electronics?
It’s basically like turning the power on/off in your house but only for one device. I wouldn’t do that except on something like a lamp. I’d never force a computer device to turn off by removing its power source (unless it was absolutely necessary).Using a wifi smart plug on a pc monitor, i was wondering if this will damage the monitor at all since turning it off is basically like unplugging the monitor while it's still turned on , it can damage the display electronics?

Again, I would never do it for any computer device. A monitor has computer components within it. It's your choice, but it will likely decrease the lifespan of your monitor. You are basically pulling the plug on it which is not a good practice for anything.i only need for the monitor not the pc
