Free to good home.

Having upgraded from the stone age I have this 100% working 15 inch TV.

12volt or mains. 3.1 amp 38w

Remote included.

Shame to just dump it even though 11 years old it works perfectly.

At present located at cow roast with no plan to move owing to serious health issues so you need to arrange collection.

As this is not for sale or wanted I assume mod approval is not needed.

Just bumping this as I don't want it slipping down the pages out of sight. It will end up in the bin over next few days.

Not the giveaway of the century but someone might be pleased to have it as a starter.

We had an identical telly. Now in use in nieces daughters bedroom. It's that old I was surprised it wasn't gas powered. They are super tellys.

11 years of excellent service now going into the bin.

Terrible the throwaway world we live in.

Some charity shops now take electrical goods.

Les,

Just checking in view of the stated age.

Does this TV have a digital tuner, or is it analogue only, so it needs a Freeview or Freesat box to make it usable in the absence of analogue services?

Thanks.

Forgive my ignorance, but if it works perfectly why did it need 'upgrading'?

Maybe they wish to watch HD channels, LCD models do seem to last longer than CRT's. I'm still using the same LCD monitor (Samsung SyncMaster 570V TFT) that I brought in 1999.

Yes it needs a free view box.

I have ended up with two basic free view boxes and the right person might be able to squeeze one from me.

Just trying to help someone less fortunate and perhaps stop some of the terrific waste in this world.

15 inch up to 24 is quite a luxury.

HD picture is brill.

Sound much improved.

Has DVD, free view,netflicks, I player and internet all built in.

Lots of HDMI, USB, etc sockets.

So well worth an upgrade.

There are other personal reasons for the upgrade but those mentioned are enough to answer you Mike.

Freegle?

?? Explain

Perhaps rusty meant freecycle? https://www.freecycle.org

Sorry. Freecycle , a site where you can advertise to give / receive things to local people. Later, many Freecycle sites renamed to Freegle.

OK will check that out in a couple of days. Thanks

Thanks for clarifying that, Les.

 

We rarely take a TV on board, but the one we have is also analog, which is why I thought I would check.

I guess Dunstable or Hemel would be the closest to Cowroast:-

There is also this one, but I have not used it before:-

No - Berkhamsted or Tring, (Cow Roast sits between the two).

They sound closer.

 

I should have known where Cowroast is, as that is where we purchased our boat

I didn't know Freegle. Looking at it the nearest to me is a few miles away plus it's much quieter than Freecycle.
