The other big tip is to turn your lcd backlighting (not just screen brightness) way down. And watch in a shady place of course. You can cut the rated consumption quite considerably if you can get watch it with the absolute minimum amount of screen comfort.

What does the power sticker on the TV say ? My guess is you will need about 300 total watts of PV to keep the batteries charged, maybe 400W if you use the TV a lot
A 300w pure sine wave inverter should be enough for the TV, which I expect is less then 100w. I like the morningstar Suresine 300 for a really solid inverter.Leave a comment:

You figure out the size of the load ( a 60w light bulb, a flatscreen TV 90w, a toaster oven 1,200w) and chose an inverter that handles that load at about 75% of it's capacity. Often a 300w inverter is the smallest size available.Leave a comment:

Most inverters will not work with a direct connection to a DC voltage source like a solar panel. You really need to be charging a battery and then run the inverter from the battery.Leave a comment:
