Re: CIM motor + Electrical outlet = ?
Why don't you separate vertical motion and lateral motion into two separate systems? You could have your TV mounted on a pivot bracket and adjust the angle with a fairly slow but powerful motor, then move the whole assembly up and down with a cable-elevator and winch?
No suggestions on AC motors. You could, however, get a battery enough to power the motors for a decent period of time (e.g. a FIRST battery, but smaller) and hook it up to a charging circuit, so the battery provides the current needed to run the motors and the charger recharges the battery at a slower rate then it is discharged.
