Unfortunately, there are no plans to create a new firmware that accounts for the watts used by disabling Deep Sleep.
You stated, "uses 13 watts in Stand By". How did you measure this? The wattages used are shown in the online User's Guide page 15 and do not mention 13w?
On = Maximum 90w, Typical 47w Active-Off (Deep Sleep) Mode = Less than .5w Turned off = Less than .3w
Zero power consumption in OFF mode can only be achieved by disconnecting the main (power) cable from the monitor.
The bigger issue here is that you stated it would not awaken from Deep Sleep mode. To what computer is the S2716DG attached? Using what cable? What video card is in the computer? What operating system? What power management is the computer set to?
Click the link below for information on sleep mode with this monitor. Also, I will need the service tags for all 3 monitors. To send me the tags follow the information below by clicking my username.

sdrieghe,
This monitor does have a Deep Sleep Enable/Disable in the OSD, Look on page 34 of the users manual below.

Jesse, thanks for the fast response. However, wow, talk about completely missing the point.
Please reread the original post a little slower before responding again.
