so my TV keeps turning on and off. i've had the same problem with my monitor that i've replaced. plugging it on an AVR doesn't seem to help. the AVR is also quite old. can you guys tell me if a newer AVR can Help? or maybe a UPS? or just a surge protector?

An AVR power plug is just a pass-through, it does nothing to the power. Same with a surge protector.

If your home has inconsistent power, you should immediately get that fixed by an electrician or you could have a fire hazard.

 

A UPS will 100% solve the problem though, if you want to take that route. I still recommend getting your electrical system inspected ASAP.
