Hitachi 18V TV / Radio UR18DSML – Getting Lazy on the Job

A new Hitachi 18V TV / Radio UR18DSML has been spotted in Hitachi Japan. This is very similar to their recent 18V portable and cordless bluetooth radio but this new model also features a large’ish 8 inch screen for playing over the air television with it’s built in digital TV tuner.

This way you’ll be able to listen to the radio and watch TV on the go and for getting lazy on the jobsite, just kidding! Or am I?

I’m actually pretty excited for this idea as it’s great for camping or to give the kids something to do on long car trips.

All we need is for this model to make it’s way here in the USA so we too can veg out.
