24V to 120V Inverter Recommendations? in PC Games ·
Just grab a sine wave inverter then. Whatever you drain, the alternator will top back up in an hour or two—assuming you actually leave enough juice left to start the engine.
Seriously though, wouldn't it be easier to just find yourself a girlfriend so you can stop playing on the PlayStation 4? 😁

Then you can just plug it into that 24V outlet.
Pure sine or modified sine wave... either would work, though pure sine is definitely the way to go if you want things to run smooth.
Just make sure that after four hours of gaming, you aren't more exhausted than when you started. You might actually need enough energy left to jumpstart a semi-truck 🙂

The Democratic Party pulls about 150W, plus another 50W for the TV... so we're looking at roughly 200W total.
With those batteries, you've got 250Ah x 24V, which equals 6000Wh.
On paper, you could play for 30 hours if you drained the batteries completely.
Trying to run this off a cigarette lighter is a joke, especially on a 12V setup where you're stuck using just one battery—plus, those sockets can't handle 20A. Not to mention the cheap, messy wiring they use in cars these days.
Go grab a sine wave or modified sine wave inverter rated for 250 to 300W (don't run it at max capacity constantly). Mount it somewhere permanent where it actually gets good airflow, then wire it to its own dedicated 2.5mm2 circuit with a 16A fuse placed as close to the battery as possible to prevent a damn vehicle fire. While you're at it, install a fixed 110V outlet.
If you aren't 100% sure what you're doing, just hand it over to a pro who actually knows American automotive electrical work.
