I don't mean to be argumentative, but my question is still this:
Suppose you can find a USB-C powered TV - in other words, it runs on the USB voltage of 5 volts DC, not 12 volts DC
and
Suppose you can find a USB-C charging device that produces enough power at 5 volts DC to run the TV
then
Where does this charging device get its input power? If you have to plug the USB-C charging device into a 120VAC wall socket, then you might as well plug your TV into the wall socket.
Is there a USB-C charging device that runs on 12 VDC input, and does not plug into a cigarette-lighter socket? I haven't found any.
Can you find a USB-C charging device that is hard-wired into your 12VDC source in the camper? On a quick search, I found only one, but I don't think it could provide enough output power to run TV. And you have to cut a hole in the mounting surface. Once you have decided to cut a hole, wouldn't it be easier to simply mount a properly-sized cigarette lighter socket?
Am I missing something here?
