Waterproof Bathroom TV

November 12th, 2006 by mattfacer Leave a reply »

In an effort to make my house even more “gadetty” I purchased a mini waterproof LCD TV for my bathroom

I’m not a bath person really, I much prefer taking a shower. This however, is bound to change my mind! The TV arrived along with the waterproof speakers so I started work straight away. A quick test showed it was working nicely and picking up my sky signal along with terrestrial TV. (I also found that it has Tetris on!)

I’d already put a power cable and TV aerial inside the wall cavity. All I needed now was to wire in the speaker cable to the loft for the ceiling speakers.

One hole in the plaster board later and I have a TV in my wall! You’ll notice there are no tiles around the bath – this is the next thing to do. (eventually!)

The sound from the 4″ speakers is actually quite good. I was worried they may be a little tinny, but so far so good. Hopefully we’ll get around to plastering around the bath soon, so I’ll post some updated pics shortly.

The tiling has now been done around the screen…
