Thanks for the link Speve I have seen cello they are a good price but they seem to get mixed reviews so ruled I have them out for now.

I bought a 19" Cello TV/DVD recently and am perfectly happy with it. Full HD Freeview tuner, also has satellite tuner, good picture and sound OK. Got it direct from the makers from here . And £100 cheaper than the one you are looking at. They also do a 22" HD one but that was too big for my space.

The only problem is that sound is not brilliant but we just bought a pair of USB speakers to plug in the back and they're fine,had it for four years now.

If you are using ADGUARD then if you disable it for 30 seconds Amazon links will show OK. Don't know if that is true of other adblockers or not.

Make sure you know the difference between FREESAT and FREE TO AIR..
For some it does not matter but as you used the term FREESAT

The one you listed is FREE TO AIR,, In fact I am not even sure if there are any with FREESAT as thats just a UK service and very limited to TV manufacturers..
As long as you know.. You will still get almost all same channels just not under a FREESAT guide and layout...

 

[Newfie]

I'm still not sure what size to get as I don't get the new MH until sept
Avtex are expensive but get great reviews & after sales service
Cello cheaper but mixed reviews,bad sound viewing angle
Vision plus mid price but only 2 reviews on Amazon

I'm not happy with the cello keeps losing its set up and viewing is difficult.

You get what you pay for. We have had Avatex tv's in both caravan and Motorhome.

I had a problem with the DVD drive, thay arranged for it to be picked up, repaired it and sent it back. It went again so they replaced the whole TV with the latest model, which we are using now 5 years after replacement.

Yes it is more expensive but quality of picture and service are second to none

 

[cranky]

We got a pack of cards and a luxury scrabble who needs telly!!
Actually,we have a cello tv/dvd with freeview and its fine. But as you might guess,we don't use it much. The sound is ok and never had a problem with the tuning.

Cello cheaper but mixed reviews,bad sound viewing angle

You will not get a good sound from a small, light and thin TV - the physics involved doesn't work. There was a problem a while back with sound on some Cello models (more to do with stuttering I think), but mine is as good as I need.

The viewing angle on my new 19" Cello is much better than the viewing angle of the 16" Avtex it replaced. When looking at reviews you need to be careful as to the model being referred to - Cello make a large and confusing number of models. Ours is the C19EFFV2T2 in their Traveller range.

We are just looking at tv's to watch films from hard drive. Is there any reason we can't get a normal domestic tv?
Only watch 1 film a night and plenty of power.

Normal domestic tv is fine for your use. As long as you have an EHU or 240v as most domestic TVs don't have a 12v input

 

[Newfie]

Thanks for all you input.
All 3 manufactures seem to have the same specs on their latest TVs
So I need to confirm the size first, then see how much money is left after the alarm & satellite dish are fitted.
It doesn't look like anyone has a Vision Plus, strange as these have been about since 2012 maybe new to the U.K.

I bought an Avtex TV last year and I am amazed how feature rich it is for a TV of such low volume manufacture. I did work in the TV design industry so have an idea about things like this and it has everything DVB-T2,DVB-S, USB support and seems to play all formats. No problem watching TV in France and Spain and selecting the English audio.

 

[Dazzlin]

So is it me or.....
Looking at a phillips 4000 series 22" tv.
240v but only £120. So I use the inverter.
This thread - 18.5" £250.
Is this just 'cos it has a 12v adaptor?

 

[Zigisla]

I have the VisionPlus 18.5 and am very happy with it. As said before, the sound isn't great, but for TV it is fine, but movies, I hook it up via Bluetooth to my Bose system. I am not sure myself the difference between free sat and free to air, but tuning into my SatFi I get over 1300 watchable channels. Some repeated, but loads to watch if that is your thing.
DVD player, HDMI connection and put loads of movies onto a USB stick.
