Do you use your TV on 12 volts permanently or is there enough room to swing the tele down into position with the mains plug in the socket.
I have the Alden 16'' TV which consumes remarkably little current at 12 volts so even on the rare occasions we have a hook up I never use it on 240 volts.

We have the same TV as you Steve, and use it in exactly the same way as you do.
I can see no point in using the transformer when on hook-up.
A significant part of the reason I did the job is that I like the ultimate in ease and simplicity when on holiday (Or in other words - I'm bone idle! ) I flick three switches, wait less than one minute as a rule, and the TV comes on.
Taking off its natty, upholstery-matching cover and swinging it down is the most time consuming part of the operation.
I simply went to Maplin and bought a circular toggle switch. The hole can then be drilled with a wood bit. Assuming you have got somewhere suitable. I dont like leaving items on standby all the time. Incidentally, I find the PACE Skybox draws the same current on standby as running.
