Why not use a mains/battery unit? Other than a car CD/radio, I can't recall seeing another sort of 12v one? Caravans are fitted with a car radio type ( - least all the ones I have had have been). As they are rare (non-existant??) I guess they would be expensive.

If you use one with batteries, it's probably worth buying rechargeable batteries and a charger. Replacing batteries can be an expensive business.

Sorry I have not answered you question directly, but hope that something I have written might be useful.

Perhaps something like this??

I'm a bit stumped here! Still not really sure as to what you're really after. It's the 12v bit?

I don't think you can but one actually. You either have the car stereo type fitted or a portable radio that accommodates it's own batteries. If you can get one I would be interested to see one as when I asked about them I was told that they don't make them.

You mean it comes with a 12 volt plug? The socket is fixed on the caravan wall.

I think I know which TV / Radio unit you mean but it is probably an analogue TV which could be rendered useless when the UK finally switches over to digital signal.
