    Default Outside TV

    Who’s got one and is it specially made for outside elements. With the prices these days i think I’m going to just get a regular flatscreen smart tv and roll the dice. It will be on an open sided covered porch. Shouldn’t get wet, but will be around moisture for sure. Might be a $500 lesson.
    If you give 10 people a bag of gold, someone will complain about how heavy it is!

    Get a cover and you will be fine for quite some time.

    This is what I do. I made the 500 dollar mistake.

    I have a cheap one down at the outdoor kitchen (covered). It is on one of those wall mounts that allow right angle rotation.

    I ordered a heavy canvas TV cover. This is the 3rd summer it has endured.

    I went into the idea of a TV outdoors as "disposable". I'm happy it has lasted this long.

    Set up a bird feeder instead. Maybe you will have a bear come visit.
