Runtime = usable capacity ÷ average draw. "(est.)" means no independent capacity test exists, so we assume 80% of rated capacity reaches the AC outlets. See the methodology. "Check price" links may be affiliate links.

What size do you need?

What size power station do I need for a TV (LED, 32-55 inch)?

Look for at least 68 W of continuous AC output and 68 W of surge. For capacity, a TV (LED, 32-55 inch) averages about 68 W, so 8 hours needs roughly 700 Wh of rated capacity and 24 hours roughly 2,050 Wh, assuming 80% of rated capacity reaches the outlets.

How long will a 1,000 Wh power station run a TV (LED, 32-55 inch)?

About 11.8 h, if its inverter can handle the 68 W startup surge: roughly 800 Wh reaches the outlets, divided by an average draw of 68 W.

Which power station can run a TV (LED, 32-55 inch) for a full day?

Of the 15 models we track, the smallest that runs a TV (LED, 32-55 inch) for 24 hours on one charge is the Jackery Explorer 2000 Plus. Larger models run it longer; see the table above.

What a TV (LED, 32-55 inch) draws

Running watts68 W[source]Median reported on-mode power (federal test procedure) of the 45 ENERGY STAR certified LED-backlit LCD TVs with 32-55 inch screens in EPA's certified-televisions data set, retrieved 2026-10-18: 68.4 W, rounded to 68 W. Range across those models: about 28 W (32 inch) to 102 W (55 inch). Measured at default picture settings; bright/HDR modes and non-certified or older TVs draw more. Check your TV's label.
Startup (surge) watts68 W[source]TVs have no motor start-up surge; surge = running.
