Saw one in Maplins today and it was pretty neat, 12v, freeview, and the picture wasn't a bad size either. On special at the mo £149.99, goes back up to £200 at the end of july?
what do you think?

Dunno Rob, I'll let you know,the thing arrived at home this morning ... that's not even 24 hours delivery ! Now it's play around time trying to bodge it onto/into the solar shower bags we've got. That else just run it from a collapsible water container.
Cheers,Ian.

Bl%dy marvellous ... as with 99% of cheap electrical stuff I was sus about it BUT it works really well off either the fag lighter or on 4 'D' cell batteries (not included) even the present Mrs H. (God bless her) and her charming offspring were impressed
