wa8yxm and BigV are right. Get a 600 watt pure sine wave inverter. I installed the Xantrex SW600 as mentioned above. Try to mount 3'-5' away from batteries. I went to wally's and bought two 2 gauge starter cables and then went to a stereo install shop and bought an inline 80 amp fuse. Mount the fuse on the positive wire as close to the battery post as possible. I mounted the inverter under the dash (behind the firewall) and use a HD extension cord if needed. You will find yourself using the inverter for more then just the TV and DVD so it is a good idea to get a little bigger unit then you think you need. If you get anything over 600 watts expect it to draw more amps from your battery bank to operate the inverter.
