The xbox 360 draws about 160 watts of power, as for the TV it depends on what size and type we're talking about. If its a small size LCD monitor it's not going to use much at all; a 15" LCD monitor uses about 34 watts. If you're using an old style tube TV it'll be more.

Another thing to keep in mind is many standard cigarette lighter jacks will only handle up to so many watts of power. Mine for example will only do 120 watts through it. You may want to run a separately installed jack capable of the wattage you want to run directly connected to your battery. (Note: If you do the above anything you plug in to the jack will run even when you car is shut off this can cause battery drainage and may result in you calling someone to jump start your car. You might want to use a relay system to safe guard against that)

ok so a 19 lcd wouldnt be to much

Probably no more than 50 watts; if you have the make and model I can look it up and find the information. 160 + ~50 watts= ~210 watts, you wouldn't need either of the two you listed.

This one would work if thats the case.
