Will Sony Playstation Drain the Battery ?

Hi:

I am planning for a long distance trip with my 1997, 4 cyl 4Runner. I plan to drive in the evening (therefore I will be using headlights etc). In addition, I am also planning to bring my PS2 box, along with my 13" LCD monitor and CD to AC inverter. Will these equipment drain my battery? I am very concerned, especially if I am driving in the night using so many lights. Is there a way to measure how much power I can use without draining the battery (or may be ruining the alternator)? Appreciate your help.


Jim

X2 it would be about the same as riding around with ur sub amp on. As long as u have the vehicle running it will be fine.
