Outdoor TV - patio

[SB]

Will a TV stand up ok to being outside under a roof like on a patio? Am wondering how our damp air effects their life span?

Which would you buy for a covered patio, a low end or high end TV? Any TV recommendations? Samsung vs TCL?

What about a TV cover?

Thanks!

Buy as nice of a cheap TV as you can afford to replace in 2-3 years and call it a day. I had a 42" $200 Hisense last me 2.5 years. Wouldn't turn on and went and bought a $250 52" Toshiba before the A&M Game.

Thank you for the reply. It is going to save me heartache and money.

I was going to suggest buying an outdoor tv, but holy chit! I paid less for my first car!

SunBrite=$$$$$$$

I wonder if their pricing has decreased in recent years like most other technology has or do they have the market cornered and charge what they wants?

I have an insignia from Best Buy.

Cheap, good picture. Been on the covered but open back porch going on year 3.

Scot I looked into this a while back ago. I’d suggest following the previous suggestions about buying a good cheap tv. I read somewhere that the expensive ones would last much longer.

We have one at camp, we cover with a garbage bag when not in use, 2 years now so far, it is a cheap one also

We went with a Sharp brand. It was a Black Friday deal at Walmart the wife found. We were wanting a big TV for the patio, and this one is 65”. My fingers are crossed the picture will be OK. Hope to be in the new house within the month. Will need to have MS Duck house warming party, so y’all can evaluate the TV.

Free beer! You got me, I guess I’ll come check out the tv! A little bourbon and I may just watch a game on it.

I’m in!!

Sounds like a plan. Hell, we could probably fit everyone that still posts here on the back porch.

I am in on the party too. Someone got to keep JLT in line.
