I replaced our bedroom TV this year with a 24" Samsung that will run off the 12-14 VDC. No inverter or AC needed now. Has HDMI and coax inputs. Works great when we are boondocking also. Went to Radio Shack and got the 12V plug for it that has the on off switch so the TV does not draw anything when I shut the plug off. They also have smaller TVs that will run on 12-14 VDC.
The samsung 14volt TV's run off of 12 Volt? Why not call it a 12 volt tv?
So I go to Fry's with the dimensions that will fit in the available space. I chose a Samsung 22" which they say isn't a 22 inch but a 21 and something
inch, so why not call it a 21 and something inch. Anyway when I go to plug it in I notice it is really a 14 volt tv. I already purchased the inverter so
I hook up the inverter and plug in the 120 plug that plugs into the 14 volt converter that plugs into the tv. So I look at the wife and say "i think
I'm going nuts. She says take it back and get a 120volt tv. I say, why bother at this point. Anyway it works real nice, it sounds good, I have a tv
in the bedroom and a wiring extravaganza inside the closet on a shelf.
