I "spoiled" my last monitor to death.
Meaning this, unless your house mimics Australia, it's not doing any justice to let him out so much.
I used to let my last monitor out constantly, people [bleep]ed at me and I ignored them, then after five years of this practice he passed away.
I would never take mine out now for any more than an hour or two a week.
