I see there is typical (95w) and maximum consumption (225w) - is that because of back light? Lowest is low backlight?

So if I used economy with low backlight, I can work on 100w and therefore a 288kwh inverter is good for 2.5hrs TV only?

Depends on the TV, depends on settings. I can get my 65" down to 100w with my sound bar on with it on eco mode, but the back light is low and the local diming is low.

With 288kwh you can power a small town, your TV (or a 1000 of them) will be fine. Battery will be expensive to make full use of it

Use a smart plug and measure it.

My entire house with two TV’s on (one OLED and one LED) neither running any energy saving hardly amounts to 500W.

Be mindful most of these things aren’t inline UPS’s.

You’ll need to plug out, move, plug in every time you want to use it in load shedding.

Get the Sunsynk/Ellies power cube if you really want this kind of thing.
No UPS functionality on the Ellis Cube Nova etc.

Ecoflows actually do have, but not great for the application.

Oh no I’m aware, hence why I said if you really wanted to compromise in that fashion get that.
