12V TV

A 12V caravan TV is engineered for the road, handling vibration, voltage fluctuations, and the knocks that come with travelling Australia's highways and dirt tracks. Englaon TVs feature vibration-resistant circuit boards, silicone-sealed internals, and a reinforced metal frame, tested to withstand more than 90,000 knocks. They also include built-in 10V to 30V surge protection, which guards against the voltage spikes and dips common in caravan electrical systems.

Englaon TVs run directly from your caravan's 12V battery, so there's no inverter required. All models also include a 240V adaptor, so the same TV works at home or on a powered campsite.

Englaon's 12V TVs draw between 24 and 48 watts depending on screen size, making them heaps more efficient than a standard household TV. A 24" model typically pulls around 2 to 3 amps from a 12V system.

On a 100Ah lithium battery with roughly 90Ah of usable capacity, you're looking at approximately 30 hours of viewing. That's around 3 hours a night for 10 nights from a single charge.

Larger screens draw more power. If you're running a 32" or 40" model regularly off-grid, we recommend pairing it with a solar panel or DC-DC charger to keep up with demand without stressing your battery system.

Yes. Englaon's Smart TV models run Google TV or Android TV, giving you access to the Google Play Store and popular apps including:

- Netflix, Stan, and Disney+

- Kayo Sports and Foxtel

- 9Now, 10 Play, and 7Plus

- YouTube and Prime Video

You'll need an active internet connection to stream. Most travellers connect via a mobile hotspot, a 4G modem, or campsite WiFi. The TV connects exactly the same way a smartphone does.

For areas without mobile coverage, selected Englaon models include a built-in DVD player and USB ports so you can keep watching offline.

All Englaon TVs include a built-in HD digital tuner with AutoTune, which automatically scans and saves available free-to-air channels at your location. At each new campsite, a quick channel scan takes just a couple of minutes.

Reception quality depends on signal strength in the area. In regional and remote locations, signals can be weaker. Pairing your TV with a quality omnidirectional antenna, particularly one with a built-in amplifier, makes a noticeable difference. Englaon stocks a compatible antenna range designed to work with their TVs.

Screen size comes down to your available wall space and how you travel. Here's a practical breakdown:

- 22" and 24" suit smaller caravans, camper trailers, and boats. Lightweight, compact, and easy to store.

- 27" and 32" work well in mid-size to full-size caravans with a dedicated mounting spot.

- 40" suits larger vans with plenty of wall space and a lounge area set up for viewing.

Before ordering, measure the wall space where you plan to mount the TV, including the swing radius if you're using a swivel bracket. Also check the VESA mounting pattern on the TV matches your bracket. Englaon offers a range of compatible swivel mounts and wall brackets.

Yes. All Englaon Smart TVs include a 240V power adaptor, so they run on both 12V DC and 240V AC. On a powered site, plug directly into mains power rather than drawing from your battery. The same adaptor means the TV works at home between trips too, so it earns its keep year-round.

Englaon's range is built around different feature sets and budgets:

- Standard Series are reliable 12V LED TVs focused on free-to-air viewing, with several models including a built-in DVD player. The most affordable entry point in the range.

- X70 Series added Google-certified Android TV, built-in Chromecast, and Bluetooth for streaming and phone casting.

- X70+ Series refines the X70 with improvements to performance and picture quality.

- X90 Series runs Google TV with a faster processor, improved audio output, and a slimmer bezel. Fits a larger screen into the same physical footprint as older models.

- Pro Series is Englaon's flagship line, featuring 4K UHD resolution, Dolby Vision, Dolby Atmos, and Android 14. Recommended for travellers who want the sharpest picture and latest software available in a 12V TV.

Englaon's 12-month manufacturer's warranty covers manufacturing defects and electrical faults under normal use. Physical damage to the screen panel, such as cracking or vertical lines caused by impact or pressure, is classified as physical damage and falls outside standard warranty coverage.

To protect your TV on the road, we recommend using a transit bag or TV cover whenever the van is moving, particularly on corrugated or unsealed roads. Englaon stocks compatible covers and transit bags in their accessories range. Extended warranty coverage of up to 3 years is also available for added peace of mind.

If you experience an issue, contacting the Englaon support team directly through the website is the quickest way to get it assessed.

There are several practical options depending on how you travel:

- Mobile hotspot connects the TV to your smartphone's hotspot via WiFi. Simple to set up and works well anywhere you have 4G coverage.

- 4G modem or router creates a dedicated WiFi network in your van. A good option if multiple people are streaming at once.

- Campsite WiFi is available at most powered sites. Connect through the TV's Network settings the same way you would on any other device.

- Starlink provides satellite internet for remote travellers, connecting to the TV via WiFi. Starlink requires its own hardware and power setup.

WiFi settings on Englaon Smart TVs are found under Settings, then Network, from the home screen.

A few add-ons make a real difference to your overall setup:

- Antenna improves free-to-air reception significantly in regional and remote areas. We recommend an omnidirectional model with a built-in amplifier for the best coverage across Australia.

- Swivel bracket lets you angle the screen for comfortable viewing from different positions inside the van, and folds flat when travelling.

- 12V soundbar clips to the bottom of compatible Englaon TVs and connects via Bluetooth or cable, boosting audio quality without adding bulk.

- Power adapters ensures clean, stable 240V power delivery for use on powered sites or at home.

- Transit bag or TV cover protects the screen from dust and pressure during transit.

All accessories are available directly from Englaon and are designed to integrate with their TV range.
