Hi Sparky
12.5 amps seems a lot for a 27 inch tv and may be just an idle boast on the label of the power pack. Might be worth rigging the set up to a beefy 12volt supply (car battery) and measuring the current to see if you could get away with a psu with a lower rating.
Just a thought
John.
sparky:
hi
tried 12v-7a tv powers up all ok 30 mins later
psu runs very hot , will not work with car battery
got to be a regulated supply

ProDave:
Car battery will be fine, as long as the engine is not running and it is not on charge. Then it will be a very stable 12V source.
sparky:
hi
fitted fuse in + supply just in case connected correct way to battery
no joy tried lower rated psu to check if any damaged caused by
above. Still works on lower rated psu
