RE: lcd in bathroom



Hi Martin

I have brought a small Kenwood TFT screen, (around 6" x 4")  which I am
planning to do this with - for TV in the bath :-)

Rather than have mains power in the bathroom, I have run a cable from Node 0
for supplying the 12v power for this screen, along with a length of screened
cable for the signal. (yes and a couple of lengths of cat 5 :-) - for
Telephone and IR).

I'm using a spare nicam VCR in Node 0 to provide the picture out to the
screen, and will then add an infrared point in the bathroom to control the
TV with.

I'm routing the sound through ceiling speakers (Henrys sell some in white -
www.henrys.co.uk)

I plan on mounting the TV into a recess in the wall, and to mount the TV
behind Perspex, which will be sealed into the wall.

As for the remote control, well that's going into an aquapac:

To allow for if the control gets dropped in the bath :-)

HTH

Daniel

I'm thinking about putting a small lcd screen recessed into chimney wall in
the bathroom to use as a digital picture frame, telly etc. (Driving it from
a computer)

I think I remember someone doing something like this....

Any ideas re mounting behind perspex / glass? Also what about touch screen
or other input?

Martin
