Hi all, we've just bought a second hand caravan (our first) and im looking for advice. We have a solar panel but now realise that won't power a telly unless it's a 12v one.

 

I'm not spending a lot of money on an Avtex TV, and have found two options.

 

The first is a Samsung UE19H4000 (our first holiday is an electric pitch, so thinking about an inverter later on at it's only drawing 30w ish at main load.

Or a Manta 19 12v telly, which is polish but unknown.

Has anyone any experience with either, and do I need to spend a lot of money on an inverter for the Samsung?

    Cello TVs are 12v and are well priced and well reviewed...

    Thanks all, I've gone for an Alba TV from Argos for the moment.
