What is the rule on Flat Screen T.V.s being left in the RVs for winter ? Some have told me to get it out ,others have said it is ok left in. ( one store told me they are shipped in unheated trucks to the store in the winter,so they are fine ) What are you doing ? I have taken mine out. Thanks For Your Thoughts !:confused:

I only have a cheap 20" lcd in my trailer but it stays there all winter I have it sit over 2 winters now with no problems

The only thing I have heard about Lcd screens is that they don't like working in extreme cold

Ours is build into the trailer and raises out of the wall..We leave it in as it would be a pain to remove.

Mine has stayed in the trailer over three winters. No problems at all.

If you use your trailer when it is cold, makes sure it is unplugged till it warms up for a long time to ensure there is no moisture or condensation left in the unit or you will fry it!

Leaving LCD screens in the cold is ok. We have GPS, laptops, DVD players etc. with LCD screens always being subjected to cold.
