i have a 600 watt inverter in my car it's a mod sine wave I'm trying to run a playstation 3 off it but it ain't working a playstation has 1.2 amps at 240 volts which tells me that it is only 200 watts for a playstation to run being a 600 watt inverter i think it would have sufficient amount of power my only guess will have to be that a playstation 3 needs a pure sine wave I'm throwing this question out there to see if any one has done this and please tell how i can find a solution.
the inverter is a 600 watt continuous with a peak of 1200 watt but i never look at peak if it is 380 watt it should work but i suppose getting a larger inverter won't hurt.
it strange cause i have a dual battery system and even with the car on the inverter turn off with a fault even when the battery is at 13.8 volt so it's not the battery supply I'm pretty sure it's the inverter.
Is it 600 watts continuous? Most 600's are going to be peak power and maybe half that for continuous power.
According to Sony the Playstation operates on 120 or 220 volts and requires a max continuous operating 380 watts. Mine is a 1200 watt and has no problems with Playstation or X-box as long as the engine is running. If the vehicle is not running it will let you know pretty quickly there is a draw on the battery.
