At this time I think I'm going to go with a regular LED/LCD TV with a power inverter. I think this option will give me more options on the brand and size of the TV, along with a better price point.
What size/power power inverter do I need to a LED or LCD TV
I'm sure I will need to buy new mounting bracket as the existing one is specifically build for the current TV.
Just about any size inverter will be adequate for most modern televisions of the sizes you'd be looking at...typically they're well under a hundred watts. A 300W inverter should be plenty for the TV and a DVD player, satellite receiver, or other source. It may be wise go a bit bigger if you expect to use an XBox, though still probably not really necessary.
Incidentally, an LED TV is actually an LCD TV with LEDs for the backlight (rather than cold cathode fluorescent tubes). The marketers don't like to make that clear so you think that an LED TV is some exotic new technology that is vastly superior and so undoubtedly worth discarding your existing television sets to own.
