Power (kW) = Power (HP) x 0.7457

Power (HP) = Power (kW) x 1.341

lets do some maths using what i posted previously... (if you can handle it)

if 1 donkey = 0.25 kilowatts then 1 kilowatt = 4 donkeys
therefore 300 kilowatts = 1200 donkeys

if 1 HP = 2.9828 donkeys then 1 donkey = 0.33526 HP
therefore 1200 donkeys = 402.3 Hp

if 1 kilowatt = 1.341 Hp then 1 Hp = 0.7457 kilowatts
therefore 402.3 Hp = 299.99 kilowatts


so that means 300Kw = 402Hp = 1200 donkeys


a donkey is a term of power measurement. do you really think i pulled it out of my 'ass'..?

There's a load of converters on Google, they're pretty spot on.
