Most small flat TVs have an inline transformer to drop to 12V. Not all will be happy with lead batteries that can run from 9V to 14V, depending on state of charge and/or being charged. You may have to add a 12V regulator to run it off batteries. I have such a TV, off 12v batteries on board, the picture is fine but there is no sound. By running from the mains lead (which incorporates a step down transformer) through the boat's inverter everything works fine. Presumably significant inefficiencies exist in the system, but it works, uses the standard components and is simple enough for the average electrophobe to use. Regards ...........................
