When traveling and taking only one device, I usually opt for my Surface Book or MacBook Air 11 because it's so easy to use a DisplayPort -> HDMI cable to watch TV on hotel TVs.
Wouldn't mind the option to take the iPad Pro instead, but the TV output story is more complicated.
I have a Chromecast, but haven't found a good way to stream videos stored on the iPad to it.
So looks like <$100 my choices are:
I don't suppose there are any good apps for streaming directly from the iPad to the Chromecast I already have or to a $39 Fire TV Stick?
(I had the old AV adapter for my dock connector iPad. It worked okay, but was a bit quirky to use.)

- Lightning Digital AV adapter
- Apple TV (3rd gen)
- Chromecast or Fire TV with appropriate apps
