− | I'm thinking about adding Iulian's test(s) to this page. Its a little difficult because it was not a precision measurement and there are several unknowns (exact wattage, Q Factor).

I'm added Iulian's test to the page. I realize that it is just approximate numbers and there are a lot of unknowns, but I think its useful to add as a rough comparison, as people can actually watch Iulian's test and this table helps put that measurement in relation to the other tests.
