A cheap power inverter should do the trick.

A PS2 doesn't need heaps of current to work so you wouldn't need a huge one.

Give this a shot. http://www.crutchfield.com/S-rTBAPAuW7nn/cgi-bin/ProdView.asp?g=850&I=539XP175P&search=power+inverter

I think this should be fine if you only want one outlet. There is a link on that page for another unit that has more than one outlet, also. You can either just plug it into your cigarette lighter for now-and-then use, or cut the cig. adapter off and hard wire to a constant 12v source.

Honestly, that's a bit too expensive, especially to just power on a game console.

rocky 59, go to wally world, and they have a black and decker inverter for like 10-14 bucks. It's small, compact, has protection feature, cooling features and a couple more features that will do the job done. When i get home from school, ill take a picture.

This wasn't meant to be a "Get this!" idea. it was only to point in the right direction, figuring the OP wasn't sure what they were looking for. And, that is the one i am running. you can find it online on sale for about the price you mentioned above. I just didnt feel like searching that deep. i got mine for $17 shipped. Was just meant as a guide. //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif
