Below is the the tentative resolution for the same:

We are assuming that your old TV is 20 inches and is used for approximately 4 hours a day. Also we have assumed that you are using incandescent bulbs of 55W each for around 6 hours a day. Also you have not specified the Ah of your 6V battery. And your 850W inverter cannot be used.

1) You can buy 5 numbers of 205W Sun Solar panel from ($ 274.70)

2) 3 numbers of Midnite Solar Breaker ($10.40 each)

3) 2 numbers of Delta Lighting Arrestors ($40.00 each)

4) 2 numbers of 5 foot long inverter cable ($40.80 each)

5) 8 numbers of 1 foot battery cable (8.16 each)

6) Midnight solar combiner box. 1 number

7) 1 number of MNDC ($ 188.00 each)

8) 1 number of Xantrex Trace Inverter Charger ($ 648 each)

9) Outback Breaker. 4 numbers ($ 25.50 each)

10) 8 numbers of 6V 225 Ah deep discharge batteries
