    Anyone know which would be the more reputable brand? Or perhaps suggest another...

    Just my opinion, but I use a 22" LCD purchased from Walmart for much less than either of those two brands. A small inverter is all that is needed to power an lcd tv, so one doesn't need to be limited to a dedicated 12v model.

    I have seen drivers using both brands and seem to both work well. I am like the above poster. I have a 19" Magnavox with built in DVD player works well for far less I am sure. I am not sure on exact price because I got mine for Christmas.

    In August 2010 when I was going throught training, my trainer had the NAXA brand and it worked well the few times it got used.

    Anyways good luck with your decision.

    I've got an older NAXA CRT/DVD. Been used in both the truck and at home, never had a lick of trouble with it. Been using it steadily for almost 4 years now, for movies, TV watching, and gaming with my old PS2.

    I have a Vizio 22" LED I bought brand new on craigslist for $175 ($300TV) and it only consumes like 50w. I have it running off a small plug in inverter. I trust a Vizio 110v TV 10000x more than a off-brand 12vDC tv, 1/2 the quality 2x the price
