284BHSL - Outdoor TV Mount

Looking to mount my TV outside, I know there is a TV hookup and TV power, however, where is it safe to put the mount?

Rook, I do not have your model trailer but thought I would mention what we did for many years. You can purchase a nice LED TV that is much larger than you would want to mount and just keep it in your trailer. Then when you want to watch outside just set it on a table next to your connections.

These TV’s are so light that they are easy to set up and a 40” tv will be much better to watch than the 22” or so TV’s that all the trailers have mounted in the outside set ups. Our new Voltage has one already installed and we will probably never use it because we will just use my 3 year old 40” LED. We keep it in the box under the bed and the stand pulls out really easy from the base. We just don’t tighten the one screw that holds the stand in the base.

Might not be the answer you wanted and certainly not as clean or easy but a much better viewing experience for us.

That's not a bad idea. Then you choose the TV you actually want!

I'm even geekier than that these days. I actually view almost everything on a hand held device. (I'm alone a lot) And if I want others to watch what I'm watching, I just "miracast" it up onto the full size screen. The Roku is a really great device for things like streaming and miracasting and such.
