FragBox/Shuttle in car setup?

I want to set up my frag box in my car with a 7in touch screen monitor that will be mounted on my dash board. Anyone have any suggestions for a way I could connect it to my car battery or a seperate one. As the power supply will have to be like 300+ watts and all the accessories. If I could get as many suggestions as possible before I do anything that would be great.



Thanks,
PaPPy

You'd be surprised what will run off of a good 200w supply.

Using a Mini-ITX pc and a 7in touch screen you will need nowhere near
300w of power. 150 Tops (and thats with 4 USB things).. I run this setup
off 1 car batt. and it lasts for up to 6-8 hrs...

If you have the cash forget the inverter and go with a total DC system.

You may be able to buy a straight DC supply for the shuttle or take a look at advantech.com for some cool options. You could easily fit everything into the arm rest or glove box.
