Audiovox D1501 5.8" Portable DVD Player

The Audiovox D1501 makes a great personal portable DVD player. In this range, its 5.8 inches LCD screen is just perfect for personal viewing. A coupld of kids huddled together in the backseat of a car can also enjoy watching a movie together, but this is really more of a personal viewer. Then again, at this excellent price range, you may just be able to afford one for each child.

If kids are not your target audience, and you're looking for a personal viewer, look no further. This is the perfect portable DVD player for long bus rides, flights and just long waits anywhere. It comes with excellent rechargeable NiMH battery, which can easily provide you with up to 2-3 hours of use. The length of use depends on the way you use your portable DVD player. Aspects such as screen brightness, volume, and how much you use the various movie features, can all effect how long your batteries will hold. You can always recharge the batteries - even when they are still half full, so there is no reason for you not to hit the road the next day with a fully operational DVD player.
