Ether, when was the last time a news article got everything right when it related to technical things? FIRSTers have been complaining for years about minor errors in various publications and articles covering FRC events.

I'd chalk it up to someone was in a hurry and made a "best guess" based off the 1 HP number. (Which, if my fluids book is to be believed, is actually 745.7 W.)
