well you can work it out, look on the back of the tv it should say how much power it uses, mine says 63W , i am sure with a 110 amp battery i can get quite a lot of tv out of that. just watch running the battery down to nothing, it's never the same after. hope that helps.

Hi as a rule of thumb 12watts at 12 volts = 1 amp.

so a 63w tv is approx 5 amps which is around 20 hrs veiwing without any other load from water pumps lights etc.

Yep Watts divided by Volts = Amps. Works the same for 240/230V when you are on hookup.

If you are wild camping then when you move from area to area your leisure battery would be charging. Unless you stay in the same spot for several weeks!!

Can fault the calculations above.

Get a solar panel, then you have no issues at all, makes a big difference, also can run your satallite and DVD and have on as many lights as you want without worrying about the battery
