A lot is going to depend on how good the battery is and how efficient your converter is. The only thing that's certain is that the lights will need 288 watts total. I'd double that figure to allow for losses and the fact that you won't be able to discharge the battery fully. (The inverter will quit at some point, as the battery voltage drops off.) So figure 600 watts. A typical (new) car battery is about 80 amp-hours or 960 watt-hours. So you should be good for at least an hour and a half, maybe two. More if you use a deep-cycle battery, less if your battery is old.
