“Will tv work directly off 12 volt power? Noticed that the power cord includs a step down transformer that converts 120 volts to 12 volts. Can I purchase a 12 volt power cord and plug it directly into my RV's 12 volt power supply?”

The 12 volts coming from the standard 120 volt power cord is still 60 cycle AC (Alternating Current). The 12 volts from your RV power supply is DC (Direct Current), so that would not work. However there are good, inexpensive inverters on the market that can take your 12 volts DC and provide the required 120 volts AC that the TV power cord can be used with. Just be sure to get an inverter with a large enough power capacity in watts.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.No. Not unless you use a power inverter.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Because 12v direct systems are not as regulated, this TV must be used with the included 110v to 12v power adapter, and can not be hooked up directly without voiding the manufacturer warranty.
