TV with 14v brick, okay at 12.x volts?
I'm looking at a Samsung TV which has a 14v power supply brick. I would like to run the TV directly off the DC side of the RV. I expect it would be pretty good in the range of converter voltages of 1...

I wonder if there's a DC-DC "inverter", which would take a range of input DC voltages and crank out a steady 14v.
Check out the Meanwell DC-to-DC converters - you can get them in many different input/output configurations. I have one that has an input of 9-15 volts and puts out a steady 12 volts. I use it to power a few sensitive electronic devices.

The problem with doing it that way is when the battery voltage drops below a critical point, permanent damage is done to the battery.
What does using a dc-to-dc converter have to do with running down the batteries too much? That can happen just as easily without a converter.
