Power Inverter Inducing noise?
#1
Ok, I bought a cheap DVD player at FS over the holidays. I want to put it in my car, for one to play mp3's, and 2 to eventually play dvds (to which I would be eventually adding a screen).
I tried to find some info here but couldn't find much.
Which of these units induce noise, or I've heard, with video game systems cause static on the screen?
I would hate to buy one and find out it's useless for what I need it for. Are there any specific brands which are better than others?
I know XS Cargo has some Coleman ones for cheap, but I was thinking that they mustn't be that great if they're so cheap.
Any help?

i think it all depends on the combination of the gear u are using. when i had an lcd in my jeep i tried to hook up a psone to it and it was statiky as hell and there was no traction. when i put ps2 there everything was fine.
then i got the pioneer tv deck and now both psone and ps2 work fine.
it's the ground problem between the peices of the equipment that causes this.

One of the install managers at an FS in B.C. did some testing and found that some inverters were better than others, I can't find where I put that info. IIRC it was a midpriced one that was best out of three or four he tested. I would buy a good quality one and make sure there is a good return policy behind it in case it introduced noise.
