How big of a battery will I need?

The week the Beta starts, I'm driving to Boston. I don't want to miss out, so I plan on playing my PS4 in the car while we drive. My car won't support a PS4's power needs for more than 10 minutes. If the drive is say, 8 hours, what size battery would I need to sufficiently sustain online play for that amount of time? Price isn't an issue. If you could recommend a wifi USB for the drive, that would helpful as well.

    You would need a 3G/4G data stick and pay out the ass; that's if the data stick is even compatible, which it probably isn't. You'll probably need a portable wifi hotspot. Not only that, but your latency will be VERY high, and will probably make ur gaming experience and the experience of others awful. Then you'll need one hell of a battery, nothing you can actually obtain. My PC's backup battery can sustain it and a very small display for 10 minutes. This isn't feasible.
