I have just bought a new super slim 22 inch 12v tv that was meant to come with both mains and 12v power supply, it has only come with mains, how do I run it off the 2 pin 12 v. Power plugs in the motorhome ? It says the power is 12v 3A Output. From the mains plug adaptor, can I get a cigarette lighter plug thing to plug into tv ?
Any advice please..
Yep, you just need the correct connector to fit the TV's 12v DC input socket.
Unless it is a dedicated TRavel TV it would not normally come with a 12v DC only lead, you could either canabalised the Mains adapter lead, or better still make up a dedicated 12v lead for the TV.
Personally I would go for a 12v to 12v DC adapter, this will ensure that the TV gets a stabilised 12v supply, your MH may already ensure this via it's 12v outlets, but it is possible the supply may not be stabilised which could damage the TV.
Better safe than sorry, Maplin or CPC at Preston should would be the best for what you need.
