Koss DVP2161 Compact DVD with MP3/CD Player
Hot little item gets too HOT...but...
I bought this unit with plans to take it in my car and only use the DVD portion of it but when I found out that it not only plays dvds but mp3, vcd, and even my CDRW backup of all my digital jpegs and mpegs I was impressed. I does get very hot I stress VERY hot. I noticed that if I set the unit on a carpet or car seat (fabric) rather than a hard flat table top the picture will start to distort, even though the audio keeps playing. All I have to do is make sure it can breath from underneath. For 90 dollars I won't mind cutting a big hole underneath it and adding an aluminum heat-sink. Or adding a tiny fan. <BR>I hook the output of the video to the input of my camcorder which has a built in 4\\" screen and the kids enjoy long trips.<BR>I recommend this only if you keep it in a well ventilated area.
