dipsticks Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 Might be of use to someone looking for a 12v TV. We just bought one of these from Aldi. https://www.aldi.co.uk/en/specialbuys/monday-21st-april/product-detail/ps/p/215-led-tv-and-dvd-combi-medion-life-e12009-md-212/ They are sure to be round again shortly (twice in the last month or so) not clearly advertised as 12v but has a separate power supply for mains which gave me the impression they would be 12v. I was attracted by the features and the 3 year warranty. It works a treat in our camper van, like being in a cinema, fantastic picture, viewing angle, sound etc, you just need to get a 12v lead with a 2.1/5.5mm connector.

mentaliss Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 paid almost same price for my cello 19" ..not bad TV but its made drawback is it needs mains to supply the 12 volt power Adaptor so no good for wild camping, Aries etc unless you want to use an inverter which can draw 30amps off your Leisure Battery, :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sambukashot Posted May 8, 2014 Share Posted May 8, 2014 30 amps from the leisure batteryWhat invertor is that your using? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoff Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 Certainly looks like what we want, can you tell me how many amps it takes from the battery ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BKen1 Posted May 11, 2014 Share Posted May 11, 2014 mentaliss - 2014-05-08 11:32 AM paid almost same price for my cello 19" ..not bad TV but its made drawback is it needs mains to supply the 12 volt power Adaptor so no good for wild camping, Aries etc unless you want to use an inverter which can draw 30amps off your Leisure Battery, :-( Why would you need an inverter, The 12v power Adaptor can be done away with and just get a cig, adaptor lead and plug it straight into the tellys 12v socket. My Cello Traveller came with a mains adaptor and a cig lighter lead. Brian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dipsticks Posted May 11, 2014 Author Share Posted May 11, 2014 According to the manual the current draw is 21watts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dipsticks Posted May 12, 2014 Author Share Posted May 12, 2014 Apologies Geoff, I should have said the power drawn is 21 watts equivalent to 1.75 amps at a nominal 12 volts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
