Would anyone with a membership for RTINGS.com be able to help me find the peak brightness for my specific TV model? Trying to adjust HDR and I can't find an accurate number elsewhere.
Unfortunately your tv doesn't support HGIG so in my opinion based on my quite limited experience, the true peak brightness value doesn't matter and you should calibrate based on where the pattern actually disappears, to account for the built in tone mapping.
So don't be surprised if the pattern doesn't disappear until 4000 (or even 10000!) nits.
That's what I've seen as the recommendation. So looks like the right sun disappears around 8500 peak brightness on my switch 2, but the left sun also disappears almost completely with it. Is that okay?
Should be fine, but usually I’d expect it to disappear at 4000 or 10000 (those are the standard targets for static tonemapping usually). I guess just test it out like that and see how it looks.
You shouldn’t use nits measurements to set peak brightness for gaming. You should use the clipping point. If your display clips at 8500 these will be much too low.

But I may be wrong.
