1st the TV. I found a 19 inch LCD widescreen that fits pretty good and pivots forward for better viewing. I wanted an LCD due to the lighter weight on the cabinet and the lower current pull.





Next the DVD VCR Combo and some moding to the legs of the shelf in the cabinet. I needed the VCR DVD to be up higher in order to sit further back in the cabinet to fit. The back of the outside lights is in the way in the cabinet. I also allows for the videos to be stored on end for easier access.



Next, my inverter solution. A 400 watt inverter into the cigarette lighter plug behind the TV's. One, this requires as little modifications to the trailer as possible and two, it was cheap. The inverter was $20 after a $5 rebate at pepboys. The TV is 1.8 amps and the dvd/vcr combo pulls 24 watts. So I am only pulling 224 watts on this circuit.



Next the IQ charger for the converter, one screw two phone jacks... I wish they all went in like this.



Next sewer hose holder extension...Self expanatory. I should be able to get a 20ft hose in here now.



Lastly, the pole holder for the 22ft flag pole on top of the 12 ft ladder. I should be able to spot the rig now.



Still left on the list before the next trip, The gas tanks fuel valve mod and quickie flush in the black tank.

Fun weekend. Thanks

Aaron

Very impressive! I especially like the LCD TV.

Where did you get the flagpole holder?

I will get one eventually. I gotta let the money tree recover in the back yard. I've darn near killed the thing in the last few months.

10-4, I'm still watering the ground waiting for one to sprout up. Congrats on the trailer, it looks great, and nice mods on your part!

What does the IQ charger for the converter do?
I really like the TV and DVD/VCR combo.
Where did you get all the electronic stuff and the tray?
Did you fasten the combo down to the tray?

The IQ charger info can be seen here.

The TV was purchased at Best Buy. It is a 19inch widescreen Westinghouse. They had a really good price on it a few weeks ago of $475. I think it is now back to $575. The DVD/VCR combo was purchased at Costco. It is a Govideo and was $80. The tray/shelf is the stock one that comes with the Warrior. I just modified it to sit higher in the cabinet. The TV is secured using the earthquake straps and the DVD/VCR combo is secured by screws to the shelf.
