well i wanted to know which power inverter would bw good run my ps2 in my car and that the only thing that going to run off the inverter. It was going to be between a jesen 160 watts inverter or a 300 watts inverter. Would I be fine with the 160 or should I just go with the 300?

go with the 300, if you get a 160, you may run into the problem i have seen several times which is you will have white lines on the screen that move all around and move faster when you rev the engine. especially that its a Jensen inverter...get the 300.

Another thing to look for is the voltage requirements of the PS2 and other devices that you are going to hook up. If it exceeds the rated voltage of the inverter, then you need to get a higher voltage inverter, not a higher wattage one.
