    12v DC versus 110 AC, which is better for small electronics?

    Is there any advantage to putting in DC appliances (TV, Toaster, DVD, etc) as opposed to running them off battery/inverter or generator/inverter? Is there lest draw? Am I only going to reduce the amount of time the inverter (converter?) will be running?

    Insignia Television direct 12VDC wire-in?

    I was in my local Best Buy looking at televisions for my new to me Roo. I saw the Insignia 19" on sale for $100 and that it had a separate power supply and the input was 12VDC. What do you guys think about directly wiring it into the 12V system in my trailer vs using the power supply.
