Installed Bluetooth transmitter on tv

I wanted home theater sound for the tv so I added a small Bluetooth transmitter to the tv now the sound for the tv plays through the stereo in the dash in BT mode throughout the the coach.

Also I wanted to passenger in the rear to be able to watch tv in back while under way but found that the power outlet that tv and DVDs were plugged into powers down when ignition is on.
Quick fix was to run small extension cord from outlet on other side of RV to and run cord accross under overhead mattress pad. Works great.
The Bluetooth transmitter has a USB charging port I plugged into the USB port on the tv so it's always plugged into power. Attached the transmitter with stick on Velcro strip.

Which model bluetooth transmitter is that? Is there any lag between the tv video and the audio sound?

HomeSpot

Yes there is a very slight lag but not too bad.
