re: outdoor TV question

Have a 75 inch Samsung terrace. We redid our outdoor kitchen and I struggled to spend the money on the tv but I put a 55inch tcl on the mantle above the outdoor fireplace and just couldn’t see it a lot of times during the day even though it was under the structure a good 20 feet. With the terrace I can see it from the house across the pool for Saturday afternoon college football.

Make no mistake, the only reason I bought it was being able to see it well. If you can see a regular tv it is way more cost effective and that’s the route I would have gone but this is a really nice tv.

I bought it from sams and it had an extra 4 year warranty through all state so I justified the cost per year if it breaks after warranty as acceptable since I enjoy sitting out there or being in the pool with the kids during the games. It cheaper than 5 lsu season tickets by a lot.
