ok so last week i bought a new deck. its and eclipse dvd player and it also has a function where you cna plug something eles to the screen (just like TV's) so i thought. "hey ill plug in my xbox" so i got all the cords and junk for it and a power inverter. everything works but when i turn on the inverter and try to play the xbox it dosnt get enough power. it sopposed to give out enough power though. also my engine is on. is it my battier or my alternator? or will it just not work?

thanks

i think the inverters fine cause it puts out 115V and the xbox needs 100V- 127V or do you mean the one i got dosnt work right?

also im not keeping it in the car its just in there to say i can play xbox in my car lol. ill take it out at night and when i go places where i leave my car and stuff

keep in mind its not the voltage or amperage your worried about, the the power inverter it says "300 watts." thats the total watts you can run through it. To find out how much wattage the 360 draws simply multiply voltage x amperage and it gives you wattage.
