    Car Multimedia System--Can I Do this?

    Greetings, all.

    I am toying with the idea of a car dvd system, and I'm wondering about this setup:

    I bought a TFT LCD screen for my computer (12"), and I was wondering if I would kill my battery by hooking it up to my car. It uses a 12vdc AC Adapter (3.75 amps) with a max output of 24 watts. To use it, I found an RCA/SVid to VGA converter, which would also require power (6vdc). It would give me 640X480 resolution @ 60hz

    In addition, I'd have to power my car stereo & the DVD unit. Would all this kill my battery/alternator? I could just buy a 5.6" screen...

    Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Thanks,
    Anthony

    Don't know about that bro... But you can buy a stereo system with a dvd player & LCD Screen built in.It's pretty interesting.It's only if you have the space in the car.Have you seen those stereo systems with a cassette player and a cd player both on the front.It's aprox. the same size as that.....$$$ it's in the 1k USD range: ...ANd u are in the USA right?...And it's only made for vehicles
