We have a sectional couch in the middle of our living room but no in-floor power outlets (and 3ft from the nearest wall.) We'd like to put a couple lamps around it as well as be able to occasionally run/charge electronic devices when on the couch but don't want to run an extension cord from the wall to under the couch (looks like crap.)

I'm thinking of a rechargeable backup power supply to live under the couch that we could plug lamps and devices into to give us a few hours of use before having to recharge (also good to have in case of power outages). I saw this on Costco.ca and was wondering if those who are more electrically inclined thought it would work for our needs. More specifically, would it power 1 or 2 lamps running 10w LED lights only, or is that too few watts for something like this?

Also open to other suggestions!

We tote.around one of those Mastercraft booster packs. Charge phones, vape batteries etc and it's good to run a speaker and a 40w light for hours. And it will actually boost a car if needed. Going on 4 years with this one. Just plug it in to charge after use or once a month during times of disuse.
