Title: LED TV for a Cocktail?
Post by: Hewskie on July 02, 2013, 03:59:44 pm

I'm thinking of starting a new Cocktail cabinet project and I'm wondering with the best option / bang for buck there is out there for the display. I'm not too interested in keeping it "realistic" looking. Also not a big fan of staying limited to 19 inch monitors.

Would there be anything catastrophically wrong with using a 28 inch LED TV like this (http://www.futureshop.ca/en-CA/product/insignia-insignia-28-720p-60hz-led-hdtv-ns-28e200na14-ns-28e200na14/10238366.aspx?path=9e446132ff9aa50afaeb2618844378b8en02&SearchPageIndex=1)? The model I'm thinking of is inexpensive and has 178 degree view angles both horizontally and vertically.

Will this type of TV fail after running on it's back for some time?

Thanks!

That would be a big cocktail table. I just made one with a 24" screen.

There is no chance of the TV failing in any position I can think of.
