Could someone with a bailey 540/6 just clear something up for me please, what is the little socket for underneath the aerial socket in the rear bedroom where the bunks are ,its says 10v does this mean i need a 10v lcd tv or not..Please excuse me for being thick lol..

Its a 12 Volt socket for powering a TV that can run on 12Volts. e.g. http://www.12vtv.co.uk/

Ok that sounds about right,cheers so i now need to find a freeview 12v lcd for me van..Oh dear this sounds expensive..

You only need a 12V if your not going to have a pitch with mains electricity hookup. We just have a normal LCD tv and plug it in the mains socket near the floor.

Most LCDs are 12V and have a 240V transformer, problem is that when on EHU the 12V socket is giving out 13.8V so the TV may not like it.

That is exactly what my problem is i am not sure on mounting a small tv in the rear,the rear cupboard doesnt look up to much to be honest especially for mounting a tv..Would look cool though ,at the moment i just take my 17" laptop along and put it it on the rear bedroom table..Think i will wait for someone to do the tv mod before i attempt it..Cheers anyway(think i might have a word with that 12v ltd,the company is not to far from me they might reccomend a decent bracket..

Asda have a lcd 19" tv/dvd / kitchen sink for £150 and is very good .

It is in a brown box with a picture of a tv /dophins in it sorry it is the only way to describe it as it has no name on the box.

Thats me off to Asda tomorrow then..........I was going to go to resco but looks like a bargin at asda,

Thort it said it had dolphins on the box then

There is a bit strong enough for the TV bracket to screw into on the sliding door wall.  If you feel and tap the wall you will find it.  Bailey have strengthened that bit of wall specifically for a TV bracket to go onto.  If you want a visual picture have a look in the brochures to see one fitted.
