I case you are interested in living off the grid...

I've been looking at dry camping and bought a 32"
Westinghouse LED TV on sale at Costco, only $200 .
It runs on a 19 volt computer laptop AC/DC module, only 40 watts.
I am planning on hooking it up to a DC/DC boost
converter I bought off of Ebay for $8.00.
That way I don't need AC power.
The boost converter is 90% efficient.

Regards,
Bill
