TV Question?

<< < (2/2)

JerArdra:
Karl,

Good point Karl.  I did not take into account that the DVD electronics might be turned on EVERY TIME the TV is on.  Yes, separate the two.  Two different units might be one way of doing it and the other way is to use a small inverter with separate 120 volt TV and DVD units.  From experience I found that converters do a VERY poor job of charging two 6-volt batteries.  Maybe they are better today.

Our first 18 and 22 foot Class Cs had 12 volt TVs because they had converters only so we always ran the TV on 12 volts no matter what.

Jer,

Another reason for getting two separate units is failure. If together and one fails, the whole unit needs to be returned for repair so you have nothing.
