I only ever leave it in rest mode if it's already in the process of downloading/installing something and I'm done with the console - I'll just leave it in rest-mode so it can finish the download/install (or if I'm charging the controller). Otherwise, yeah, I just turn it off.

I always keep mine in rest mode but I also have it plugged into a hefty UPS/Surge Protector.

Almost always a full turn off as I only play it once a week or two.

I haven't played in more than a year, but when I did play regularly, it was always in rest mode.

I turn it off simply because I don’t want to see that orange light while I’m watching a movie in the dark.

I guess I should get me one of those surge protectors. Not every power strip has a surge protector built in?

I think most are. PC as well (big hulking power square with cable input as well). But I know PS5 is just on a power strip with some other incidentals.

As much as I think Monster cables are bullshit, their power centers and surge protectors are great. I have my gear connected to an older power center but that thing has metal/steel components. I paid like $150 for it many years ago. You can see what they have on Amazon..
Here's one of them for example:

I actually have a Amazon Brand...Anker, Belkin, Tripp especially and of course APC are solid... Just make sure to grab one where the outlets are spaced and not right next to each other.
The Amazon Model I got for PC...but I do also have a dedicated outlet for it.....

I bought this Belkin model recently and I really like it. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000J2EN4S...roduct_details
My PS5 and 4K TV are plugged into this APC model https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0...?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Oh yeah? No way I’m shelling out for that. What $600 total with tax for just the equipment? No. I have enough games exclusives what have you to last me a good 10 years (on just this system alone) 😂.
