Guys our trailer has a cabinet with a flat metal swivel base on runners that pull out from a cabinet to mount a TV on. Is there some kind of base that can be bolted to this and then the TV itself ? We are kinda stumped as to how to attach the TV to the swivel base. It has some holes but could easily be drilled for a different pattern or size. A TV will easily sit on it but needs to be bolted/attached to it. Any ideas ?

I used sticky velcro all around the bottom of TV and the stand. It has stayed in place for the past 4 years. Just be sure that the velcro is actually touching the stand and bottom of TV. For my husband's sake I even put the velcro on the remote and side of TV so he could find it! Just a reminder, make sure the TV stand-table is attached with the little pin down into the hole to secure everything before take off.

I used a small ratchet strap until I got a flat screen.
I
have an extra wall mounted flat screen I want to mount but not sure where the wall supports are to anchor into. Haven't gotten real motivated since not many places around here have electricity

Sorry I can't help you with a flat screen model but we never have electric when we camp. Get you a power inverter. They are great. We watch movies when camping and I charge my phone on it and husband charges his electric razor on it. It will beep if the camper batteries are weak which only happens if we are taking showers and have the heater and lights on all at once. After we settle down the batteries will charge back up and the inverter gives us the go ahead for a movie.

I don't know but they do. If the whole place is lit up like I said and we are showering the batteries show lower than normal. After we turn everything off in a little while things are back to normal. I'm sure there is a thery but I don't know the answer. We give them a little charge in the morning when we fire up the generator to brew coffee but that is it.
