I have my Samsung Note 3 loaded with movies so when I travel by plane I
have entertainment for the trip. A few months ago we went camping and it
began to rain a ton. At the time I didn't have an awning so we stayed in
the westy and watched a movie. I fashioned my Samsung phone with some good
old blue painters tape and attached it to the AC cabinet above the lower
bed. we laid down and watched a movie til the rain passed...

Im all for doing whatcha like... more power to ya!

My crude tv setup... lol
