    Non-interrupted 12V DC power for bedroom TV

    I looking for a 12V DC for a 12 V DC TV in the bedroom of our Imagine 2600RB. I'm planning on placing a 12V outlet at the bedroom TV mount point. The overhead light are switched and on a dimmer. There would be no power if the lights are off and low power if the dimmer is used. Does anyone know if there is a continuous 12V power run I can tap into within relatively easy reach?

    If you cant find a 12v source or dont want to run a new 12v line, you could always explore the option of adding an inverter and use a traditional 120v TV.

    Can you replace the current antennae booster with something like this?

    The TV is a Jensen 24 inch 12V DC television. We've had this unit in 2 other travel trailers and would like to use it in the 2600. The idea of having a 12V DC television is to use minimal power but have access to local weather (where local OTA is available) while boondocking. While I could set up an inverter, the power loss through the inverter is something I don't want to have.

    It's my understanding the existing amplifier for the antenna will handle moving a signal to a television in the bedroom.
