Small inverter or 12 volt tv?
I just bought a Samsung 24 inch tv that I really like. It has the option of playing video straight from a flash drive, an option I really want. I had trouble finding the right size barrel plug - see...

I run my TV from the 12v socket with a small plug in invertor. The TV is a Vizio 24" and I also run a 26" outside with another plug in invertor.
Those outlets you should not exceed 8 amps. Thats about 100 watts.
Both these TV's run at 25 watts or less. ( I used a killowatt meter to determine this)
The invertors I use ar stanly 120 watt units with no fan. ( I dont want the noise).
TV's run fine and never an issue.
I also run a third invertor by the couch in the summer to run a 20" box fan. Box fan uses 95 watts on hi. I unually run on low @ 25 watts.
So while boon docking I could be cranking 8-10 amps out the batterys an hour. With my 220 ah batterys ill be at 50% in about 10 hours.
