Tyler 14 Portable TV LCD Monitor 1080P Rechargeable Lithium Battery Operated 2 Antenna HDMI USB RCA FM Radio

This is a great little TV. I live in a rural area and it brings in 4 channels. One of them is a news channel which I find important during storms and power outages. I live in a hurricane area. The set up was easy...the picture clear and sharp, it has also great additional features. The only thing I feel lacking is the audio level is clear but a bit to of low. This TV works great either on house current or running on the rechargeable battery. It's well worth the money. - RECOMMENDED Read more

Works really great the only problem is I have to buy a amplified antenna I'm only getting two RF channels with four to six standbys. Pictures really good it charged up in less than 4 hours and I got almost 3 hours off of it so the only problem I have right now is if anybody knows do you leave the charger plugged into it all the time or just charge it up when you need it. Seems to be very sturdy color quality is really good it looks great the size of the screen is adequate and I used it outside a couple times. Read more

First the positive, This is an easy to use TV. It has an excellent remote control that includes a numerical keypad to type in the channel number you may want to use. It has a "recall/return" key that lets you return to the previous channel you were watching. Remotes on big screen TV's larger than 43 inches no longer offer this feature. This TV also has FM radio reception. This TV has a lot of input choices including HDMI and USB. On the negative the manual reports the screen resolution is 1280 x 800 pixels. The RATIO is what matters. It's not a "wide screen" ratio like 1080p and 720p that larger screen TV's AND TV station broadcasters use. Why does that matter? It matters because the algoritm this Tyler TV uses crops/cuts off the edges of the 1080p or 720p video that the TV stations broadcast....they don't broadcast in 800p (1280x800). The result is the edges of broadcast TV stations are cut off on this TV's screen. Also the images of people on this TV's screen look "skinnier" than they actually are on a big screen TV. If you are watching a 16:9 (1080p or 720p ratio) video broadcast you can (only) reduce this TV's screen horizontal image "squeezing" distortion and it's horizontal screen image "cropping" (clipping off the pictures edges) by choosing the "Panorama" setting by using the "ZOOM" key on your remote control instead of the "Auto" or "16:9" setting. There will still be a small amount of horizontal image cropping but the vertical cropping will be unchanged from the "Auto" or "16:9" screen setting. People will look more normal "width" (less skinny) too. Other than this one fault this is a nice TV. Read more

The primary use of this TV is when I go camping, so I have an after-dark activity. Any avid camper knows that you can't always rely on a cell signal where you are, so your cellphone isn't always an option then. We've all been there, right? I also live on the East coast, so bad weather & hurricanes can knock out power for days on end. The included 12 volt plug will make sure I have power from the car OR from the portable 100 watt solar setup I have. I'm in no way a "prepper", but it just makes good sense to think two steps ahead, right? This TV is dead simple to setup once you power it up for the first time, as it's already right there at the setup screen. Scan for channels, adjust the colors, set the volume mixer for different types of shows, time zones & so on. Not in those orders, but you get the idea. Since it's a digital TV, it has a great picture because, well, it's digital & not analog. You either receive a signal for that channel or you don't. There's no in-between anymore. Well, there IS...but green & blue pixelization & choppy audio is something I don't care to watch. Just move the antenna, problem solved! I *do* like that it displays 1080 programming on the screen (station dependent of course!) & being a 14", it's large enough to see comfortably at about 6 feet away or so. I'm camping, so I won't be far away from the screen anyways! And the sound is very decent coming from the rear-firing speakers. Just put it up against a solid object (a wall or some other larger metallic object) to reflect the sound forwards. In the manual, it states that it has a 6,000 mAH, 3.7 volt battery inside. That's more capacity than your cellphone, so it should last for several hours. I haven't been on a camping trip with this TV yet, (but in the next 30 days I will!) so I can't vouch for the battery longevity. That'll be a later update! It's all 5 stars across the board (for now) & will be revised as needed. You want the truth before plunking down your money as I do? I'll tell it like it is...the good, the bad & the ugly. So far all good, no ugly. The only "bad" point here is the side antenna connection. You'll have a cable sticking out of the side of the unit, so go to the blue & gold spiral WAL* store & get a right angle male/female F type cable connection. This way the antenna connection cable will be hanging down instead of sticking straight out. That would've been a nice addition to the included equipment inside the box, but it is what it is! The included stubby antenna is only for local stations within a few miles of you. I can't get a single station with the magnetic stubby, so I use a powered flat white wall antenna (can we say 47 channels now??). This is where I say to use the right angle adapter as the coax is much thicker & sticks out quite far & easily gets bumped sticking out like that. So there ya' go! It's time to plan the next camping adventure! Read more
