Step 6Mount and Done!
If everything is working, turn off the DVD Player and unplug the battery holder from your tuner. Apply a few dabs of silicone glue to the board and affix the battery holders to it. Glue should dry in about an hour. You might want to wrap the holders down with masking tape while you wait for it to dry.
That's it! Now, the next time the power goes out, you'll still be able to watch Digital TV. Especially useful in a storm when you need weather updates. By using D-cell batteries, the unit should stay powered for several hours. And if they go dead, you can easily replace them. The biggest drawback of my particular setup is the rechargeable battery pack on the DVD Player. But if you use an old handheld or portable TV that can run on disposable batteries as well, as long as you have batteries, you've got TV... even after the DTV switchover in February.
Enjoy your new battery powered HDTV!
