How are you running it without draining all of the battery's power? My mom's minivan has lost all battery power (Odyssey, I think with deep cycle battery) if you just left a light in the back seat on, I'm not sure how that would work if it was running a full on gaming system!

Thanks! Ive got a relay that only lets power to the inverter when the key is on, so key off = inverter and playstation unplugged

Thanks Balto! That's Killer on the left (he's about 14) and Abby on the right (about 9 - Killer likes younger ladies!) Both dogs were adopted and both are fixed
sorry no puppies - can't have one
The ps3 has a component output as well as an hdmi. I ran the component's RCA cables directly to the head unit's AUX IN ports. Plug and play, really!
The hard part was figuring out that the playstation wanted hdmi when I first turned it on. The trick was to "long press" the power button until the second beepon first power up. that forces the output to 480p thru the components (then I could see enough to set the video proper)
Thanks,
