01Why South African distributors look at a portable TV on wheels
A portable screen on a rolling stand does not need a wall or a mount. It moves to where it is needed, and with a built-in battery it can run without a power point. We do not have data on how your customers will use the screens, so we do not list use cases. We list what the product does.
The standard build has a 10,000 mAh battery. The 23.8 inch HL desktop series carries a smaller 5,000 mAh battery, so check the battery line in the quote for the exact model you pick.
The stand tilts +/-25 degrees, rotates +/-90 degrees and adjusts in height, so the same screen can be used in landscape or in portrait.
Back to contents ↑02What the Stand By Me TV range includes
The range is a portable smart screen on a mobile stand. Sizes are 23.8, 27 and 32 inches, and the HK series is made in 27 and 32 inches only. Memory and storage come as 4GB+64GB, 6GB+128GB or 8GB+128GB. Touch is 10-point capacitive, and connectivity covers Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, HDMI in, USB-C and a 3.5 mm audio jack. Whiteboard software, screen mirroring software and a remote control are included.
The back panel finish is the main way to split the range into price tiers:
HY
plastic texture, the entry tier.
HK
half-fabric cover.
HS
full-fabric cover, with an optional carry bag. The HS 2-in-1 version has a detachable display and a base with 5 silent casters.
HP
leather-texture back.
HL
desktop display with no floor stand.
You can browse the whole line on the Stand By Me TV category page. Three listings worth opening first: the battery-powered model, the fabric-back model with a Bluetooth remote and the portable model with a stand.
The catalog and the price list disagree on the processor and the operating system version per series, so we do not state either here. Ask for the confirmed specification of your chosen model in the quote.

05Shipping and trade terms to South Africa
Our standard terms are MOQ 1 set on the listings, T/T payment, a lead time of 7-9 days and a 1-year warranty. The price list above applies at 500 units; smaller orders are quoted per order. We ship by express courier, air freight or sea freight, and we quote four trade terms:
EXW
you collect at the factory in Guangdong and take over freight, insurance and import clearance. This is the price in the table.
FOB
we load the goods at the Chinese port and you arrange the sea or air leg from there.
CIF
we pay freight and insurance to the destination port and you handle clearance and local delivery.
DDP
we quote a delivered price including import charges. The figure depends on the route and the product, so it is quoted per order.
For sea freight, carton size matters. The HS 2-in-1 version ships flat-packed in smaller cartons, which lowers freight cost and puts more units into a container. Standard packing is a PE bag, a rigid carton and high-density foam, and bulk orders go in full cartons or on pallets. We do not publish freight rates to South African ports because they change with the route and the season. Ask for a quote with your destination port named.
Back to contents ↑06Certificates and documents to ask for before you import
The Stand By Me TV range has a CE-RED certificate of conformity (no. FCS202605230CA01, June 2026) and an EU RoHS 2.0 certificate of compliance (TST26235100288CC, dated 17 June 2026). The wider interactive range also holds an EU Radio Equipment Directive type examination certificate and FCC equipment authorization grants. IKAR is covered by an ISO 9001:2015 certificate (no. 10151085Q), valid to 2029-04-17, for the Dongguan production site.
We have not verified any South Africa specific approval, so we do not claim one. Ask your customs broker which approvals and labels your product class needs, then tell us which documents they want and we will check what we can supply. Duty, VAT and clearance fees depend on your importer status and broker, and we cannot quote them for you.
Stand By Me TV deliveries we can show with photos went to the USA (March 2026), Italy (May 2026), the UK (July 2026) and the Philippines (August 2026). None of those photos is from South Africa, so we make no local reference claim. What we offer is a factory in Guangdong, a clear price sheet and a documents pack you can check with your broker.

08FAQ: Portable TV on Wheels South Africa
What is the minimum order for South Africa?
The listings show MOQ 1 set, but the price list applies at 500 units. Orders below 500 units get a separate quote, and under 10 units we add about $7.5 per unit. Tell us the series, size and quantity you want and we will quote that order. Confirm the quote in writing before paying by T/T.
Which trade term should a South African distributor choose?
The choice depends on how much of the route you want to control. With EXW you take over freight, insurance and clearance from the factory. With FOB you take over from the Chinese port. With CIF we pay freight and insurance to the destination port. With DDP we quote a delivered price including import charges. The table in this guide shows EXW prices only; other terms are quoted per order.
How long does production take?
The lead time is 7-9 days from our standard terms. Custom work such as logo, packaging or software configuration can change that, so we confirm the date in the quote. Freight time comes on top and depends on whether you choose express courier, air freight or sea freight. We do not publish a fixed transit time to South Africa.
Can the screens run without mains power?
Yes, the standard build has a 10,000 mAh battery, except the 23.8 inch HL desktop series, which has 5,000 mAh. A battery-free version is $23 lower if your customers always have power. We have no tested run-time figure to quote, so ask for the confirmed battery details of your model before you position it for backup use.
Can I put my own logo and packaging on the units?
Yes. Paid logo customization starts from 500 units, and packaging and software configuration are available on request. Tell us the size, series and quantity in your inquiry and we will confirm what is included in the price and what is an extra.
