#1 failure reason

What matters in this category
- Gaming PCs have PSU ratings (650W, 850W) that overstate real draw. Actual consumption under load is typically 40-60% of PSU capacity.
- TVs are among the most efficient entertainment devices, drawing 50-150W depending on size and type.
How to choose for Entertainment
Entertainment devices are generally compatible with most mid-range stations. The key variable is how long you want to run them. A gaming PC at 400W actual draw needs 2,000+ Wh for a 4-hour session, while a TV at 100W can run for 15+ hours on the same battery. If you are buying a station specifically for entertainment backup, capacity (Wh) matters more than output (W).
Common mistake
Sizing a power station based on PSU wattage. A PC with an 850W PSU typically draws 300-500W under load. Measure actual draw with a kill-a-watt meter first.
