SunBriteTV's 46-inch 4600HD all-weather outdoor LCD

SunBriteTV have updated their range of weather resistant LCDs with a top end 46-inch model that brings the nature resistant features of it smaller siblings to a much larger screen area. The SunBrite 4600HD, which will debut at InfoComm in the second week of June, has a corrosion resistant enclosure that protects the internals from the elements. It has a built-in filtered fan system for particularly hot days, and a heater which allows it to work in temperatures of around -4 degrees C (24 degrees F), plus a watertight cable system for a range of sources including HDMI, component, VGA, S-video, composite, and RF. You won't want to stick a regular antenna into this TV though, as it comes with a respectable 1366 x 768 resolution at a 1600:1 contrast ratio. All this high end outdoor kit comes at a cost -- $4,995 to be precise, available from dealers this month -- but if you have a use for a HDTV in your garden, there's still the problem of figuring out how to weather-proof your HD sources. A perfect opportunity for the ever innovative console modders to get a tan, perhaps?

now I didnt see anything about cable card slots..........if they dont have one why would they think people would have a satellite or cable box OUT in the rain??

Run a line out to the tv from the box stored inside. Waterproof a UHF remote, viola.

yes, but will it survive getting struck by lightning?

@alfonzo

A lightning rod will come in the form of an overpriced upgrade/accessory.

I don't intend to offend anyone, but where are we guys supposed to be looking?

[JohnTitor @ Jun 2nd 2007 6:00PM]

for $5K I'd rather just get a large umbrella

design looks like a large[r] 704

[MrGam3r @ Jun 2nd 2007 6:02PM]

I think i'd rather spend $4,995 on whats ON the tv, not the tv.

[MrGam3r @ Jun 2nd 2007 6:04PM]

(or a large umbrella)

seems that this pic truly wants to say that its for guys on the internet with the pants down...

lcd s need protection too

Well, the good news is that adult shops can replace those older tv sets and not worry about them breaking due to "liquid substances" spilling on them accidentally.

Uh... Ew?

[Sam @ Jun 3rd 2007 12:20AM]

Well, If my neighbor gets a new OUTDOOR TV, looks like i'll be getting a new INDOOR TV...
Will that take 2 people to carry? I just wanna be sure...
