It's not enough amperage to get it started, and even if it does it won't have enough juice to run it more than a few min.

This wouldn’t work for a garage door considering you would use it much later after the power goes out. Garage doors are high wattage when activated. They are ~1/2hp+ after all

Most likely, this 425VA UPS would not work even for just the 65in TV (or any TV). A 650VA may work for some TV with low power consumption. My 1200VA UPS would not even support my 55" threater display.
