I said 'THP is the power available'. It wasn't meant as a definitive definition of THP, merely an attempt to use some words to give context to the paragraph.


Nope. THP is the power DELIVERED TO THE VEHICLE.

Now, are you trying to tell me that THP is not the measure of power available? If so, which of the other definitions of power that are out there, that one might call commonplace, eg IHP, BHP, SHP, ESHP do you believe is the right one to use in the context of power output available from a prop? Or do you have one of your own?
