Default LCD tv

TB:
If you look at the back of the unit, where the 110 adapter plugs in,
you'll see that the input is 12 volt.

I took the 110 cord to an electronics store and bought a plug. It cost
less than a dollar. Attached it to the cabin light circuit. I am
keeping the original cords "just in case", but it seems that I will not
need them.

Both TVs work just fine, and have been for months. Charger, batteries,
alternator, it works just fine.

My experience:
If you tell anyone you are going to do anything differently than
everyone else does, they will say, "Don't do it".

Don't tell anyone.

After the positive response i bought a Sharp 13". Although the unit
is 12 volt , the only power source supplied is a 120AC to 12v DC
adaptor. It would be better to run direct from 12v rather than through
an inverter. How do you do it? Do you know if Sharp supply a 12v direct
cord. I don't want to just cut the cable after the transformer in case
it HAS to be 12v and won't tolerate say 14v as the sytem will be when
charging.

The 20 inch is a Sharp Aquos model LC 20S2U-S, and the 15" is a
Slyvania 6615LD.

Sylvania is really a Toshiba.

I bought a 15 inch lcd for my aft cabin, liked it so much I got a 20
inch for the salon. 12 volt, 4 amps, light weight, take very little
space. Junked the crt screens.

They should be able to put up with some motion, as the technology is
the same for lap top screens. I don't worry about them holding up.

My feedback is all good.

How do LCD TVs hold up in the marine environment? any good or bad
feedback? The plus that I see is low power consumption.
