Question: what is the difference of using a cctv monitor and household TV ?


Answer:Thge only difference I have noticed is that many (not all) CCTV monitors have more lines of resolution. Som mfgs claim commercial monitors will last longer, but that has not been my experience. We have been buying 19" and 20" color televisions and using them for both B/W and Color applications for about 5 years now. About the only time we use commercial video monitors is where we need to install a lot of monitors in one location. That is becasue the really small televisions don't have composite video inputs and we don't want to add the cost of modulators, and most really small televisions seem to be poorly built. There are some small flat LCD monitors we are looking at for multi monitor applications also, but so far they seem to be a little pricey.
