I tried this using a 32” smart TV I got cheap. I put it in our non working fireplace. I wasn’t sure if our Wi-Fi would work in the fireplace, but it sure does! Now I can pick any of the fireplace videos on KZbin! I thought it would look really silly, but with the fireplace screen across it it looks great.

Removed a section in my camper where the entertainment area is and installed. Works great. Instead of propane furnace heat, I can use this kzbin.infoUgkxATHBlMJwipGgVWseuAFKvDQ_5R4_lywo to heat the camper as long as it's hooked up to shore power. Only thing I do not like is there does not seem to be a thermostat. I'm presuming it has a built-in one so it does not overheat. Really like all the other color options it has to offer.

We are doing this now, will use ceramic brick to surround the insert space to add an even more realistic look! So much better than the electric fireplaces you can buy and way less expensive!
@davidlambert7725 Жыл бұрын
Sadly this won't work in an antique Victorian cast iron fire grate because the 'format' (so to speak) is vertical (the fire space taller than it is wider.) The TV would have to sit on its side. The only way to solve the problem would be to make my own video of a real fire with the camera held sideways (portrait style.)

This looks very similar to the fireplace method by MagikFlame, except that theirs also has a heater with 4500 BTUs. Looks good! 👊😎

Thanks for sharing this idea, I'm going to do it with a fire place that we have had for over 15 yrs, it's just been sitting in a corner doing nothing, I've looked on line and the same fire place is $500 or more, this one works off 220 volts, so I'm gutting it out,the heater doesn't work,but everything else looks like new, even has a wire mesh screen,I'll post it when done. oh and far as tv, already have a flat screen 32 inch smart HD tv that was given to me a yr ago,been packed away, so altogether this is costing me maybe the price of getting another AV or HDMI cord.

I built one of these ages ago after trying lots of different designs and use it every day. I bought a dirt cheap old fashioned log effect from an old gas electric fire and removed the old red heat and metal disc flame effects bulbs { they generate heat to spin the little metal fans } and replace with the new LED flicker fire bulbs, they last 10,000 hours and are about £6 each. Second hand TV with DVD player of your choice and I cut the log effect in half to be nearer the tv screen. A real fire with sound and all in less than £100, I was going to add a pond fog generator for smoke but the water vapor was a bit dodgey near the TV lol
