get a converter...but you wont be able to run big fook off stuff on a car battery, so dont think you can wire up your hifi or PA system, coz it wont last long mate

hmmm dunno mate,
but if i was going to do this i would save up the cash and do a propper job of it mate there are ways around inverters with PCs (get an 12v ATX power supply) and the speakers wont sound too hot to behonest.
But yea i dont see why not, but it wont last long

but normal oc's are only 350w so sureley a 600w inverter wil cover a mini pc and a speaker system (and lil flat screen)

Pcs don't pull much current......... however its really daft to generate 240v to power a transformer that will then generate 5v and 12v for a pc....

Get a laptop car adapter and a laptop psu and rewire the motherboard accordingly.
