I've only recently hooked up my scangauge to my prius and the weather has been mild, but on an 85° afternoon its electric air conditioner draws over 1,000 watts when first cooling down the car and then maintains the cabin temperature drawing 350-550 watts. So I think it is a safe bet that a fan which runs off a 160watts inverter uses less power.
