, I think my T.V.'s are using a lot of power when turned off, plugging them in is like arc welding.
That's just the capacitors charging up.
I know, but it's bad, my Lincoln 225 Welder sparks less, also after being off for hours, it's still 5 degrees hotter than the room, both T.V. LED Flat do the same. Probably if you unplugged them you would save a lot of power, but the jolts would probably ruin the TV in the end. In the winter it does heat the house.

To the OP:
I don't know what country you're in (or what part of it). I like the idea of a UPS in your case. Even if there's no damage to the machinery, you will be awakened by even momentary interruptions. If you have the ramp enabled, it will re-ramp when the lights flicker.
