Hey

Am a bit worried about giving advice as a novice myself, but here goes anyway! The in car dvd player i use for my daughter has got a tv mode so it will play thru a tv.it plugs into the cigarette lighter socket so that makes it 12v right? Its a wharfedale and came from argos!

Hope that might be of use!!

Hi all..

Towsure sell a small stand alone 12v DVD player with remote control. It is a good machine. Can't remember how much it was.. bout £80 I think

We bought a 240v/12v DVD player with digital and analogue TV incorporated. It gives us about 3 hours battery time and charges very quickly, although we can use it on hook-up or through a 12v adaptor.When it arived we were a little suspicious because it doesn't have a brand name, but the unit is superb. It has a 10" TFT screen which swivels through 360 degrees and the sound quality is what you'd expect from a small unit like this - perfectly acceptable but not sensurround or whatever they call it. And the remote control works!

According to the info pack, it includes games and MPEG-4 (?) and a long list of other features I don't understand.

Can recommend it. It cost us about £120 on E-bay and it's worth every penny.

If you're interested post a message here and I'll look out who we bought it from.

Should be the same time as when plugged into the mains - these portable DVD players generally are designed to be battery operated and need an adapter to run off the mains.

BTW you can get 10" screen DVD players from Toys R Us for £80.
