AC/DC adaptor for little TV

  • You will need an adapter of 3.33amp or higher. Example, a 4.5amp adapter will work perfectly well as adapters only put out whats needed and don't run at full capacity all the time unless its needed.

    I'm afraid I don't know enough about it to name the type of plug that goes into the tv itself and certainly won't be modifying anything, changing polarity (or not), cutting leads or suchlike! I'll wait and take the old one into Maplins next time I'm anywhere near and get them to give me a replacement. I can live without a tv in the kitchen until then.

    Many thanks again and for researching this for me. Sorry to sound dense about this, I know lots about lots of other things but not electricity!

    Isn't this the ideal time to expand your knowledge, and learn something new?

    Don't you want to expand your horizons, so that next time something like this happens, you know what to do without consulting forums like this?

    This one is rather more expensive, but I don't think will have a fan and should be silent in operation.

    This one isn't quite as expensive' you must make sure to set the little switch on it to 12Volts.
