I just bought a Samsung 24" class 1080p TV last week. 20 to 21 watts, measured on the Kil-A-Watt, great picture, through a small 175w power inverter 12v to 120v. Then through the brick back to 14v. Picked it up at Costco for $169, had a $30 rebate, don't remember when the rebate ends.
Great TV, very very happy with the picture.
But will it work off of 12V is the real question? We all know it will work off of 110/120v
I'll let someone else determine that... Saving .2 amp or .4 amp for $10 in electrical connectors is not worth it to me, when I already have an inverter from 12V to 120V. 21 watts or 17 watts, for the amount of hours I watch TV, is pretty insignificant.
ABSOLUTELY !!! What's all the argument over power consumption for anyway ???? :h I just don't get it. Put the remote, bag of chips & can of beer down & go outside. An inverter makes more sense than anything. Using one allows for the purchase of ANY TV you want, without a second thought.:S
