PgDn for 12v TV Voltage Stabiliser, 230v Polarity Reverser etc.DQTV "Mel's Choice"

NEW: LCD TVS - & MMM Recommended!  We could offer you a couple of dozen different TVs but we've picked out just a few of the best, the top "Mel's Choice"* and others rated as "Recommended" in the MMM group test and one not tested but an excellent roof mounted unit nevertheless. The larger units each have a built-in multi region DVD player too. *Mel Eastburn MMM Sept. 

The top 'Mel's Choice' set the DQTV 17" stereo widescreen hdmi is truly excellent and when used with a high-definition receiver gives a simply unrivalled picture, revealing details that are simply not there on a normal TV. With the new “freesat” service more and more programmes can be seen in HD at no additional cost so this TV is perfectly positioned to take advantage of that technology. For terrestrial TV (via an aerial) the DQTV has both digital Freeview and multi-system analogue receivers so that it can be used all over Europe. A bright, high-quality screen gives a superb picture with both TV and DVD and, uniquely amongst small-screen TVs, DQT give a 100% pixel guarantee. If even one pixel on the screen develops a fault, the TV will be repaired or replaced within the two-year warranty period. Usefully, they can be used with any standard TV VESA mounting bracket too. A full spec is available on request.  Buy Now >>>August 11" TV/DVD in Silver & Black

Our top 'recommended' TV is the superb August 11 inch in all black or silver and black with a clear wide screen and a Freeview tuner. Reviews have said "about the ideal size for motorhomes up to around 6 meters" or more if you have a compact lounge of course and "like all the August sets picture quality is excellent". This model also offers the ideal combination of multi-standard TV and multi-region DVD with both digital and analogue auto-tuning, great for both terrestrial and satellite use. Any criticisms? Only the lack of a VESA mount and the small speakers - both typical features of smaller TVs. Sound is perfectly OK though and rated as the same or better than all others of similar size on test - but it would be excellent if output through your 'van's audio system using the TV's A/V output sockets. All will work best on any external aerial but something like our excellent Glomex Horizon below will bring out the best in these TVs.  Buy Now >>>Camos Fold-down TV/DVD

As well as the August DA110CD above we also offer the August 7 inch DA701B widescreen for those of you looking for a really compact unit without DVD and the excellent Camos fold-down roof mounted monitor with a 16:9 10.2" high contrast 400:1 screen and built-in DVD player. This quality unit is designed specifically for use in vehicles and boats and features an anti-shock mechanism, infra-red sensor for wireless headphones, courtesy lights and full-function remote control. It is slimmer than most similar units because the DVD is integrated into the screen housing itself.

NB: These multi region DVDs are PAL only; the tuners though are PAL I / BG, Secam L / BG / DK.

Glomex HorizonNew: Glomex Aerials - Omni and Directional: We're extremely pleased to be able to offer these new aerials, especially the Glomex Horizon directional aerial - complete with remote control!  Its unique remote control feature means you get all the benefits of a fully directional aerial with three times the efficiency of an 'omni' and very little ghosting but there's no pole in the wardrobe so it is less hassle and leaves more space for clothes. The permanent aerodynamic design with total remote control means no assembly, no climbing on the roof or ladder to pull out or re-orient aerial rods and no fiddling with a pole, just point the remote at your TV from inside the comfort of your 'van.

I'm told you can actually drive and receive pictures with this unit on the move (as long as you drive in a line with turns within 220 degrees). With a marine background this is a robust unit cased in a widely used Marine grade compound - ASA (Acrylonitrile Styrene Plastic) for maximum resistance to yellowing and cracking. It has 2 boosters, one internal and one inline, and comes with a 3 year warranty. Excellent!  To view comparisons & specifications in a PDF mini-brochure in a new window please click here Buy Now >>>

The Glomex Oasis is a more conventional but top notch Omni-directional unit. Both are great value.


Globesat & MastGlobesat Satellite TV Dishes & Finders:  GlobesatThe Globesat dish has continuously proved to be the best satellite system to use on motorcaravans and motorhomes. It works well with both digital and analogue broadcasts, at home and abroad. With all terrestrial programs now available on digital satellite this makes older terrestrial omni and even directional antennas obsolete!  In tests the Globesat’s patented cassegraine dish has proved to be 20 - 25% more powerful than conventional dishes. Add to that a top of the range low noise LNB and the performance is further increased - so although just 60 cm diameter this product performs like an 80 cm dish!  It is compact, streamlined, corrosion free, light but strong and is more aerodynamic than a conventional dish + arm. The roof kit version is designed to be installed thru-roof - in the motorhome wardrobe maybe where it can easily be raised, lowered, directed and locked into position from the comfort of your own vehicle. The separate dish and bracket can be mounted with your own arrangement or on our convenient tripod. For price, performance and convenience this is simply the best dish available. With all digital satellite setups it is essential to use a satellite signal strength meter. A compass is also very handy - we know many of you have one already.  Pole length ~3ft. Ship weight 5Kg.  See also our Satellite TV page.  Buy Now >>>Globe-sat Omni-directional Aerial

Globesat Omni-directional Aerial:  By the same clever people who make the cassegraine dish. A revolutionary design with an in-built amplifier. This new DVB-T mobile antenna ensures optimum reception from an omni and its enclosed design makes it highly weather resistant as well as very aerodynamic. The antenna + amplifier has an impressive gain of 28dBi for best reception of both analogue and digital-terrestrial signals wherever you go. Additionally, the height of the mast can be adjusted from inside the vehicle using the supplied mast. Mast 785mm, Mast dia 30mm, Roof mount dia 40mm, Scope 360º, Angle 90º, min Height 145mm, Frequency band 460-860MHz, Channels 21-69, noise 1.8dB, gain 28dBi, F-connector female, Power supply 5v.  Buy Now >>>

Voltage Stabiliser for TVVoltage Stabiliser for TV: (12v Regulated Power Supply):  With motorhome voltages varying from about 10.5v to 14.5v, depending on the state of the battery / charge / hook-up, many TVs struggle to perform and my even be outside the terms of their warranty. This 70 watt voltage stabiliser accepts 10 to 28 volts input and outputs a steady regulated 12v via a 2.1mm plug to suit many TVs. Adapters for 2.5mm and 4-pin sockets are available too.  Buy Now >>>


Mains inletMains Polarity Changeover Switch:  Our continental cousins have a different system of mains electrics to ours. One consequence is that they are not bothered about 'polarity' - which way round live and neutral go - it simply doesn't matter to them. This is however a problem to us when we connect our UK appliances to their system as we do in a motorhome.  Our Mains Polarity Changeover Switch checks polarity on continental sites and gives an easy way to switch it over.  It is installed (wired in) between mains inlet socket and mains distribution/transformer unit, then when plugging into a continental hook up, if the red light shows simply change the switch to show the green light for safety. Also illustrated right a caravan mains inlet as used for motorhome hook-ups. Spare covers available too - we can't guarantee they fit all types of box though so buy at your own risk!  Buy Now >>>

NB mains electrics can be dangerous, these items should be installed by a skilled person.  Buy Now >>>
