        Hey I read a review on this plug and one guy said it gets hot quick. Should that be a concern as far as power wattage and all? Think it would overheat or blow something out?

            I imagine it does get hot. Like the one person said, keep a AC vent pointed at it will help. Worst thing could happen would probably only blowing your cig lighter fuse in your car.

                yes, that's what the fuse is for, so you won't cause any other damage if it draws too much electricity or something. One thing to remember, if the car is turned off, you'll be draining your battery if you play...When the car is on the alternator recharges the battery (I think that's how it all works, i'm not a car guy), but playing with the car off would be like leaving your lights on all night, eventually the battery will go dead

                    KDRE, I use this one from Radio Shack for my laptop. I have bought 3 different ones, this one seems to work the best. I had a small one that I got from BestBuy once, and it worked good on my older laptop, but it can't sustain the power of my new Inspiron 9100. So I bought one from WalMart that was suppose to handle the voltage but it didn't and it started smoking, it was pretty funny until I tried to pick it up and it was hot! So I ended up getting this one from Radio Shack and it handles the laptop just fine. It handles up to 300 watts, not sure what the wattage on the XBox is, so you will wanna check that to make sure you don't fry one like I did. But this one works good for me.

                        yea Mgo, I only want to play it on a road trip out of town for the upcoming holiday weekend.

                        Hey aukevin, how do you plug that up to your computer? It looks like a small battery charger

                            Make sure the total wattage doesn't exceed what you buy.

                            That radio Shack one may do the trick with 300 watts.

                                It just plugs into your cigarette lighter. The clamps you see in the pic aren't connected to the inverter. The two outlets on it will work good if you need two things plugged in.
