Tyler's 7-inch TV offers high picture quality, easy-to-use features, and a handy car charger that makes it for great road trips. Dual AV inputs make it compatible with DVD players or game consoles.

With the TTV701, you can rely on a high-quality LCD picture without spending a fortune. Thanks to multiple antennas, a telescopic plus two high-powered externals, you can easily find a solid, reliable connection to access your favorite free channels. A variety of mounts and charging cables are included as well, so whether at home or on the road, accessing your content is simple.

Just a quick note, be sure to turn off the main switch when the TV is not in use to conserve battery life. This model also has dual AV inputs, USB, SD card slot, and RCA inputs (with included AV adapter) to support several formats such as MP3 and H.264. Overall, for an affordable and extremely portable TV, you can't go wrong with this option from Tyler.
