Hi, can anyone advise where I can get a 12V sky digibox?
Thanks
Suppliers to the caravan/motorcaravan market carry a decent range of 12V digiboxes, freeview decoders and even pvrs. One of the best suppliers is Roadpro: http://www.roadpro.co.uk/retail/default.aspx
While of course you can use an inverter, they can be a bit inefficient. And 12v versions of the boxes are surprisingly small (even assuming there's no need for a power supply).
I realise the post was for a digibox, but companies such as Maplin do this Comag satellite receiver which will run off a 12v supply: (Maplin code is A94FJ)

Best have a look on that auction site for something.
Thanks for the tip though, I'll google that make
They usually attract a premium price, also they only have one scart socket.
Caravan owners snap them up.;)

Worth also checking - occasionally they will have a stock return (B grade) at a much lower cost - comes with the same guarantee.
