As Rtings.com has apparently found 112w to be the average power draw for Sony's best 65" OLED https://www.rtings.com/tv/reviews/sony/a95l-oled , that makes it a no-brainer choice for me. No doubt my typically sub 4K content and below average living room light level will allow me to dial down the TV's brightness for even more energy savings.

Size wise, my room is 20 ft x 15. The TV would be installed on a floor standing mount like this, with adjustable height. https://www.bestbuy.com/site/insignia-tv-stand-for-most-flat-panel-tvs-up-to-65-black/6389372.p?skuId=6389372&utm_source=feed

Generous height adjustment is essential as I'm one of those strange people who needs to have my gaze at least in the center of the screen, if not a bit above it. The stand would be placed between my pair of large floor standing DIY speakers ~ 7 ft apart and 2.5 ft from the east rear wall. That would put the 65" TV ~ 13 ft from my eyes. Or I can put the TV in the southeast corner and only 11 ft away.

Best Buy will give me 10 days to decide if the 65" is too small. Sure hope it won't be. Sorry to hear that most videoasylum inmates have escaped.
