    AC to DC limitations

    Going on a 18hr road trip to texas this wed. Trying to see if I bought one of the nicer AC to DC converters if it would support a PS3 and a PC monitor. Thx

    AC/DC is limited to two chords. You might want to bring something with more variety..

    Owai...

    Check the power draw on the 2 devices and add them together, buy an inverter that covers at least that +10%. I know..... "duh"...., but it's the only way to know for sure without paying for a larger inverter than you need.

    You should probably wear some electrical gloves when you're hooking it up, you don't want to be thunderstruck.

    Careful driving while there's a PS3 in the car, don't want to get distracted on the highway to hell.

    Don't bring anything high voltage and it should be ok.

    However, it should work with the flick of the switch.

    All these references are tip-toeing on the razor's edge.

    At least it's the summer so you shouldn't hit any black ice and skid off the road metallica style

    Definitely gotta take care when working with electricity, one slip up and you'll be shook all night long.

    Just be sure that if you're using your PS3 to play Rock Band, keep the volume down so that rock n' roll ain't noise pollution..

    If this works without breaking the rules, you can have a drink on me.

    Careful fucking with a live wire, although hell ain't a bad place to be, you don't want to find out who made who.
