Greetings,

I have been looking at 15" TV/DVD combinations for a while now and have just cancelled an order with Warners for an Autosound product as it had not appeared after a long wait.

I have seen a

It would be worthwhile looking into Avtex TV's, they are designed specifically for the 12V market.

Features that make a TV appropriate for this market are those that;

1) Have an range for the voltage input between say 10-16v, rather than just 12v. Nearly all electronics run off 12v, 7v or 5v rails. Though domestic units may not feature a wide operating voltage range, and may either not work, or will not like having more voltage which could kill it. You will also find that units specific for this market, such as Avtex will have very efficient power regulation allowing for minimal power requirements.

2) Multi standard; they will work abroad

3) All in one units; DVD, Freeview, Analogue, Card Reader etc

4) Simple to use. No confusing remote controls, quick tune feature to retune the TV with one button press.

5) Exceptional levels of service from Avtex, phone will always answer within a few rings, and you will be helped immediately.

6) At the moment, a free three year warranty is being offered over the standard one year.

I have the Goodmans non dvd version of this set, £150 on ebay two years ago
Excellent picture, works on 12 v, works in France and has built in digital tuner.
Beter the more expensive versions I expect

That Goodmans seems expensive. I went into Comet the other day and they had at least two 15" LCD, HD-ready TVs that run off 12V and one had a DVD built in. Prices about 180 quid, brands Kenrick (?) and Proline I think.

I bought a Grundig 'elegance' 15" LCD TV/DVD/USB/SD combo from Comet about a year ago. It works just fine directly off the ciggy lighter type 12v supply. Price was around £230, significantly cheaper than the Avtex offerings.

Edit....Oh yes...it also has built in Freeview.
