I spent a little extra on my mount. High quality sumar. It extends up to 20" and swivels in all directions. I would do pull ups off that thing

have a 42 inch with a wireless genie on my patio. Works perfectly
No extended warranty is needed. If it's fully enclosed and free of rain you're fine.

How much was warranty? Best buy?
Yeah, best buy. I think I paid about $150 for the extended warranty

I have a 50" and it's not as big as you think. You got 5-10 people hanging out and you'll be glad you went a little bigger.

The wireless has worked really well
A lot depends on how far the patio tv will be from the main genie unit because that's where the bridge(router)wil go that plugs into your genie and sends the signal to the wireless client.
One thing to note is since it's wireless, the response time Is a tad slower(maybe 1-2 seconds) but haven't had an issue with pixilation or buffering. We had a party Saturday and had it on from noon-11pm and never had one issue.
Go ahead and get it you won't be disappointed.

You will be very pleased. Btw if you don't have the newer 44 genie you gotta get one. They are badass

Not sure which i have.. It's 6 months old or so. What's the difference
Posted on 9/16/14 at 11:20 am to Uncle JackD
Small remote is the newer one
Old boxy remote is older 34 model.

I currently have a 42" LCD outside on a swivel with DirecTV genie. I preplanned though and had electricians run coax and power up the wall. I'll see if I can find a pic. Been there since August of last year. No issues.
My thread on it.

any update on this? what tv did you go with?
Posted on 9/16/14 at 2:52 pm to Tiger Ryno
Got a 40" RCA for $229. Just finished mounting it. I just need to get an outlet put in the back of the TV next week sometime.

I'm looking for something to mount below TV to hold my genie box and Apple TV, any recommendations?
Posted on 9/16/14 at 4:31 pm to Uncle JackD
Can you put your apple tv and genie inside the house on the other side of the wall? You can run an IR extender through the wall behind the tv and use your remotes.

I have command strips attaching mine to the back of the tv. I'll take pics when I get home.
