Trying 2 days with Offgrid Battery (Computer and display only connected to it), and Router connected to house line (Playing with WIFI now).
Sensations:
1st day tried, no input lag, better gameplay ever since 2015 (Valorant, Marvel Rivals... all working excellent).
2nd day (Yesterday, after charging battery from home outlet and quit charger after its full charged) Working less better, like 70% good 30% bad (random times better random times worst).
3d day (Today) at morning now, its working good like 1st day... Will tell u more reports.

yes, always better.
Possible reason - the same as improving input lag at night: air humidity. Higher humidity acts as an antistatic agent, part of the "bad" charge that accumulates on your PC's case goes into the air. The same effect can be achieved by spraying such a case with water from a spray bottle. The same thing happens with rain, only instead of a PC case, the whole house acts as a case.

Then buying Air humidifier on same room can solve this??? Someone tried?

Yes, there were posts about it improving input lag. Not sure if a humidifier or a purifier is the one you should be looking for.

Well, it didnt fixed the issue, IDK if its body related or what.... I came back to connect all things to House, Working perfect for 3 or 4 hours, then starts slow down as every time we tried this...

That's very disheartening but good to know.

In my case, i switched house 3 times (same City, in Spain). 2 Different computers, different peripherals... All Software tweaks... Tried with Humidifier, SAI, UPS, and now this offgrid Battery (2200€ cost).... I think problem now is on Body radiance or RFI? IDK guys.

I reorganized my room so nothing comes even close to the desk, PC or the cables. I also made a finalized Windows 10 ISO with more than 1200 components removed. These usually don't make the good experience last long but this time around I took sleeping pills which don't work, they just mellow me out. Obviously at a time like this I have perfectly normal inputs, without any acceleration or unusual behaviour.
